Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Milton Street
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 will work to whatever the site needs.
What’s the nearest station to Milton Street?
Berwick (Sussex) station, about 1.8 miles north of the centre.
Is grass a problem?
Generally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- How long we serve
- Numbers
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether a minimum applies
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where the event is
- A picture of the parking spot
- Where the van would park
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ensure allergen information is available
- Share pitch details
- Agree how we will be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
Have a hard-standing back-up pitch in case the ground is soft.
Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
What the van needs
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- What’s available on the pitch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
