Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Service time
- The number of meals
- The day of the week
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: send us your details through our quote form.
Fish and chip van hire in Flowers Green, cooked to order
We keep the menu to the classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. A short menu keeps the food fresh and the queue moving. Popular choices include gravy, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re often booked for big birthdays and staff thank-you lunches.
Somewhere as small as Flowers Green, a field, yard or drive is frequently the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters more than anything. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

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

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Your questions about a fish and chip van in Flowers Green
How far is Flowers Green from London?
About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
We are gathering after a service at Herstmonceux Free Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Cod or haddock?
We serve cod and haddock; we’ll agree the choice when we quote.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is it a full meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. You can add your own desserts if you like.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, East Sussex included. Find your area.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
A chip van compared with other options
A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and usually costs more per head. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Hot food handed straight over
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

Planning a chip van in Flowers Green
Flowers Green is about 3 miles east of Hailsham, in East Sussex. People in Flowers Green book us for all sorts of reasons, but it always starts the same way: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. Flowers Green is one of 289 places in East Sussex we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Flowers Green to Brighton (about 20 miles away).
For anyone arriving by rail, Pevensey Bay station is about 4.4 miles away. For a fundraiser at a school like Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School, the van can trade from a pitch agreed with the school.
We serve events across BN27 and the streets around it. We also bring the van to events in Chapel Row (1 mile north), Golden Cross (1 mile south-west), Herstmonceux (1 mile north), Windmill Hill (1 mile north-east) and Stunts Green (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also take the van to Eastbourne (7 miles south), Hastings (10 miles east), Bexhill-on-Sea (7 miles east), Seaford (12 miles south-west), Lewes (14 miles west) and Hailsham (3 miles west).
A little further out are Herstmonceux Castle (1 mile south-east) and Amberstone Hospital (2.2 miles west).
- Local pubs include Woolpack Inn (0.6 miles north)
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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.
The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests typically gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Late September evenings in Flowers Green lose the light at about 7:00pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Let us know the serving time

Planning help
What the van needs
We’ll be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. What matters most:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A short walk from the party
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
