Which station is closest to Horsemere Green?

Ford station, about 1.3 miles north of the centre.

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What food do you serve?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Do you need power or water?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.

Can you trade at our fête or festival?

Tell us the date and pitch details and we’ll check.

How big a pitch do you need?

A firm pitch with space for a queue. Mention any power or water.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Give us an idea of numbers
  • Plan bins near food stalls

Organising for someone else?

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Winter fairs in Horsemere Green are dark by about 4:00pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 8:50pm by late May.

  1. You send us the event details and pitch information.
  2. You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
  3. We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
  4. We cook fresh and serve through the day.
  5. We pack down at the end and leave the pitch clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

How we price a fish and chip van for your event

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • The day of the week
  • The length of service
  • How many people are eating
  • Cod, haddock or both

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What we need to know

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of the space and the way in

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion and it’s on the menu.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.

  • 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
