How it works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests typically gather round the hatch once service starts. Planning an evening event in Angmering-on-Sea? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Share the timings for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

About our fish and chip van hire in Angmering-on-Sea
We keep the menu to the classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. Whether it is staff thank-you lunches and community events and fairs, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and gravy for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Angmering-on-Sea, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

What else we do in Angmering-on-Sea
A fish and chip van or other catering?

- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Bringing the van to Angmering-on-Sea
Angmering-on-Sea is about 1 mile south-east of Rustington, in West Sussex. Bookings in Angmering-on-Sea come in all shapes and sizes, but the plan is always the same: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. Angmering-on-Sea is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 15 miles away.
Churches such as The Parish Church of St Mary rarely have room for a van, but a hall or home close by generally does. For guests coming by train, Angmering station, about 1 mile north-west, is the nearest station. The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles of Angmering-on-Sea, and some venues there have rules about vehicles on site. Ask your venue about vehicle access. Angmering-on-Sea is within about 3 miles of the sea, and fish and chips always feels right near the sea. On windy days, we plan a sheltered side for the queue.
Events anywhere in BN16 start with a parking spot for the van and a serving time. Local streets include Sea Lane, Sea Road and Manor Road; an event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. If your venue is just outside Angmering-on-Sea, we also cover West Kingston (1 mile east), East Preston (1 mile north), Kingston Gorse (1 mile east), West Preston (1 mile north-west) and Ferring (1 mile east). We also serve nearby towns such as Worthing (4 miles east), Bognor Regis (9 miles west), Chichester (13 miles west), Selsey (14 miles west), Shoreham-by-Sea (9 miles east) and Lancing (7 miles east).

Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
It helps to have bins and napkins by the van for everyone.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.
What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Working with your venue
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Questions from Angmering-on-Sea
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Can you serve after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you come to Angmering-on-Sea?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Angmering-on-Sea and the rest of West Sussex. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
