Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Belmont
Can you serve near the sea around Belmont?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
What’s the nearest station to Belmont?
The closest is Ore station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we’ll work around changes where we can.
Do you cover Belmont?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Belmont and across East Sussex. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. 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 hold the date.
