Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How many people are eating
  • Service time

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Expected numbers

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Organising for someone else?

Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Takeaway run or book a van?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch
  • Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Fewer choices mean faster service

Bins and napkins near the hatch make life easier for everyone.

Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

What comes out of the fryer

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Curry sauce

Choosing a fish and chip van

A fish and chip van in Bexhill-on-Sea: local details

Bexhill-on-Sea is in East Sussex. In and around Bexhill-on-Sea, the van can serve from a drive, a yard, a car park or a firm field, close to your guests. We cover all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 26 miles away.

What happens on the day

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Guests generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Light matters for evening service: around Bexhill-on-Sea, it stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Have a level parking spot ready
