Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Stedham
How far is Stedham from London?
About 46 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Stedham?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Make sure we can reach locations on the day
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Agree the waste plan with locations
We clear up quickly after lunch.
End the shoot with a chip van wrap.
For event organisers in Stedham
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Stedham? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Level, firm ground at base
- Lighting for early or late service
- Clear of the shot and sound
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Takeaway run or book a 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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Sausage and chips
