FAQs for Little Holbury
Which station is closest to Little Holbury?
The closest is Netley station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Can you serve near the sea around Little Holbury?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

What will facilities need from you?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- How many people are eating
- How far we travel
- Cod, haddock or both
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Expected numbers
- A photo of the parking spot
- The date and time of the event
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
A chip van compared with other options
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
