A chip van compared with other options

A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

Why book with us

  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Classic food your staff already know
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Read our pricing or the cost guide.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

What affects the price in Windmill Hill

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The menu and how many choices
  • How many people are eating
  • The length of service

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Expected numbers
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Windmill Hill questions

Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

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

About 46 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Is there a non-fish option?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

What can staff choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes, it is a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.

Do you take everything away?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Step by step

We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Lunchtime bookings in Windmill Hill are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
