Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Storrington
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Storrington close to London?
About 43 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac crew in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you cover Storrington?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Storrington and across West Sussex. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Organising for someone else?

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
What happens on the day
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with frying and serving. On a winter shoot near Storrington, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with the location, call times and crew numbers.
- We check access and send a quote.
- We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
- We serve hot from the hatch when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.
How to prepare

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
