How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. For an end-of-day event in Ninfield, summer gives you light until about 9:15pm; in late May it’s about 8:45pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
Getting a price
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’re ready, use our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it is a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Send round an allergy question
- Share the shift pattern
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
Questions from Ninfield
Can the van park in Ashburnham Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you come to Ninfield?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Ninfield and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can we pay by invoice?
We’ll explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
A chip van compared with other options
Corporate buffets are normally cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
