Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Questions from Bexhill-on-Sea
Can the van park in Egerton Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Bexhill-on-Sea?
Bexhill station, about 0.6 miles south-east of the centre.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What does the van 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.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we’ll send a quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, East Sussex included. Find your area.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you do wrap parties?
Yes. It is a great way to end a shoot.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
These are the factors that matter most:
- Numbers
- The minimum booking
- Travel, tolls and road charges
