Street End questions
Which station is closest to Street End?
The closest is Chichester station, roughly 3.2 miles away.
Can you serve near the sea around Street End?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.
How big a pitch do you need?
A firm pitch with space for a queue. Tell us about power and water.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How much does a fish and chip van for your event cost in Street End?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.
Street End events: pitches and permissions
Street End is about 4 miles north of Selsey, in West Sussex. For events in Street End, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. We cover 371 places across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 28 miles away.
If visitors are coming by train, Chichester station is about 3.2 miles away. PTAs at schools such as Sidlesham Primary School often want one reliable hot-food stall.

How it works
We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Winter fairs in Street End are dark by about 4:00pm, so pitches need lighting; in late May there is light until about 8:50pm.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch

Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
