Looking after everyone

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Count children separately

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

Tell people when the van opens, so they don’t miss out.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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.

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?

Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, nobody misses the event. 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.

Why us?

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • We cover Felcourt and the whole of West Sussex
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

See our pricing or our guide to van hire costs.

What the van needs

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

  • Cod and chips
  • Pie and chips

Felcourt: your questions answered

Can the van park in Centenary Fields?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Do you come out to small places like Felcourt?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

Is fish and chips enough as a meal?

It is a full meal on its own. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.

Where do you take the van?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Felcourt.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

Bringing the van to Felcourt

Felcourt is about 2 miles north of East Grinstead, in West Sussex. Events in Felcourt are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. Felcourt is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 23 miles away.

For anyone arriving by rail, Dormans station is about 0.8 miles away. A green space like Centenary Fields is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s. Felcourt is within about 5 miles of the High Weald National Landscape, and some venues there have rules about vehicles on site. Ask your venue about vehicle access.

Wherever your event is in RH19 and RH7, we can fry fresh for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes.

How the day works

Changes on the day are fine: we will adjust start times and pace to suit your event. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Felcourt, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
  3. On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
  4. We cook to order and serve hot at the time you chose.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
