FAQs for West Town
Which station is closest to West Town?
The closest is Fratton station, roughly 3.8 miles away.
Is West Town close to London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can we pay by invoice?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A van serves hot food to order. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

How the day works

- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.

For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How far we travel
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
