About our fish and chip van for events in Pulborough

Food is fried to order, so it is hot and crisp. Typical bookings include summer fairs and church fêtes and fish and chip suppers, serving chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

Summer fairs around Pulborough are frequently run by volunteers, so a trader who brings everything is a bonus. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

How the day works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. At midsummer, events in Pulborough stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. You send us the event details and pitch information.
  2. You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
  3. We set up before the gates open.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch through the event.
  5. We pack down at the end and leave the pitch clean.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Clear the route for the van
