What happens on the day
The first sign we have arrived is generally the smell. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Long summer days in Littlehampton, with light until about 9:20pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it is nearer 7:05pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day

Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

- Add an allergy question to crew forms
We take our used oil and waste with us.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
Organising for someone else?
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
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.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Littlehampton
How far is Littlehampton from London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van park in Mewsbrook Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can the van come to Littlehampton?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Littlehampton and across West Sussex. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your supplier requirements.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
