A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • A short menu helps everyone

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

Space, access and the venue

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • A spot near your guests

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Should I sort the food myself?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

FAQs for Burwash Weald

How far is Burwash Weald from London?

Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

Is it a full meal?

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

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How do you handle allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Can you feed plenty of people?

It can be. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll tell you honestly how service will work.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

How much space do you need?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.

How it works

You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Evening events need a little planning for light: in Burwash Weald, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • How long we serve
  • The date and time of year
  • Parking and the way in

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

  • Rough numbers for adults and children

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
