Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Aldwick
Can the van park in West Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Aldwick?
Bognor Regis station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.
Can you feed visitors on set?
Yes, include them in numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Aldwick for film and TV crews
Aldwick is about 1 mile south-west of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. From the centre of Aldwick to the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. We serve 371 places across West Sussex. Our bookings stretch from Aldwick to Brighton (about 25 miles away).
Aldwick is roughly 56 miles from central London, within easy reach for London-based crews. With the sea within about 2 miles, coastal shoots need a sheltered base.
We take the van to shoots all over PO21. That could mean a shoot at a home on Fish Lane, Dark Lane and West Avenue, as long as there is somewhere for the van. We also bring the van to shoots in Nyetimber (1 mile west), Pagham (2 miles south-west), South Mundham (2 miles north-west), Fisher (3 miles north-west) and Sidlesham (3 miles west). Larger places within reach include Worthing (14 miles east), Chichester (5 miles north-west), Selsey (5 miles south-west), Littlehampton (8 miles east), Emsworth (11 miles north-west) and Rustington (9 miles east).
Nearby you’ll also find Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (1.5 miles north-east) and Bognor Regis Museum (1.2 miles east).
- Local schools include The Regis School (1.1 miles north-east) and The Regis School (1.1 miles north-east)
Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
- Make sure we can reach locations on the day
- Send the unit base address and directions
- Agree how the base is left
Fewer choices mean faster service in a lunch break.
Plan bins at the unit base.
Step by step
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. At midsummer, Aldwick has light until about 9:20pm, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access and send a quote.
- We agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
- We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
- We clear up and get out of the way.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Clear the route for the van
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
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.
About the food
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.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
Organising a club, school or community event in Aldwick? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
Where the van can park in Aldwick
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Clear of the shot and sound
- Light near the van if needed
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
