Fish and chip van hire in Ebernoe, 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. Whether it’s weddings, especially the evening and care home visits, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, curry sauce and pie and chips for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Ebernoe, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

- A spot near your guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Ebernoe
Can you serve after a service at Holy Trinity Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
What happens when we hire the van?
The van parks at your venue, we fry fresh and serve from the hatch.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
Is a chip van good for a large crowd?
Frequently, yes. Give us your numbers and service time, and we’ll plan it with you.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Questions to ask before booking
- VAT, if it applies
- The cancellation terms
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- How late numbers can change
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
- The minimum booking
- How many people are eating
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your event.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A photo of the parking spot
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. In Ebernoe, 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’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, park up and heat the fryers.
- We cook to order and serve hot at the time you chose.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
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.
