About the food

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Planners, venues and businesses

Organising a club, school or community event in Mount Pleasant? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Expected numbers
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Where the event is
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.

Where the van can park in Mount Pleasant

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • A short walk from the party
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • Lighting nearby for evening events

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Ask facilities about access
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Send round an allergy question

After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Mount Pleasant

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

Is Mount Pleasant too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Where do you take the van?

We cover London and the South East, including East Sussex. Find your area.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

Can you serve each shift?

Yes, if we know the times. We’ll plan it with you.

Do you bring everything you need?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

What about staff who do not eat fish?

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

The process

You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. We handle the cooking and serving. After-work summer events in Mount Pleasant have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Give us a contact for the day

Planning help

Should I sort the food myself?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
