Fish and chip van hire in Broomershill, fried fresh

Fish and chip van hire means the chip shop comes to you. We park up, heat the fryers and cook to order, so nothing sits waiting in a tray. We serve haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for gatherings after a funeral and milestone birthday parties.

For a rural spot like Broomershill, the setting does plenty of the work. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The date and time of year
  • The menu and how many choices
  • The number of meals
  • Whether a minimum applies

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The venue or postcode
  • The spot you have in mind for the van

Planning a chip van in Broomershill

Broomershill is about 10 miles south-west of Horsham, in West Sussex. We take a fish and chip van to homes, halls, workplaces and venues in Broomershill and nearby villages. We serve all 371 towns and villages across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Broomershill to Brighton (18 miles away).

After a service at The Parish Church of St Mary, the van can be waiting at a nearby hall or house. Nearby historic houses include Old Place Manor (1 mile west) and Parham House (3.3 miles south). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for vans, so check before booking. The South Downs National Park is within about 5 miles of Broomershill, and some venues there have rules about vehicles on site. Ask your venue about vehicle access.

We take the van to events all over RH20 and the streets around it. Neighbouring places where we serve events include Codmore Hill (1 mile north-west), Marehill (1 mile south-east), Nutbourne (1 mile south-east), North Heath (1 mile north) and Gay Street (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Horsham (10 miles north-east), Worthing (11 miles south), Bognor Regis (15 miles south-west), Chichester (15 miles south-west), Littlehampton (11 miles south) and Shoreham-by-Sea (13 miles south-east).

Space, access and the venue

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • A short walk from the party
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Planners, venues and businesses

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Give us separate numbers for children

Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.

A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Broomershill?

If you want something everyone will enjoy, fish and chips from a van is hard to beat. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.

What you get with us

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • A clear quote before you book
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Classic food your guests already know

Take a look at how we price or what a fish and chip van costs.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Broomershill: your questions answered

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. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

What’s the nearest station to Broomershill?

The closest is Pulborough station, roughly 1.3 miles away.

What’s on the menu?

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What does it cost to hire the van?

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Can fish and chips be the only food?

Fish and chips is a meal in itself. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. In Broomershill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
