Upperton questions
Which station is closest to Upperton?
Upperton has its own station: Eastbourne station.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. Visitors love it.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we’ll send a quote.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
The process
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. For a staff lunch in Upperton, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events.
