Fish and chip van hire for your event in Glynde
Fish and chip van hire means the chip shop comes to you. We park up, heat the fryers and cook to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. Popular choices include mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for gatherings after a funeral and milestone birthday parties.
For a rural spot like Glynde, the setting does a lot of the work. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
- Access and parking
- How long we serve
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.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where the event is
- Expected numbers

Common questions in Glynde
We’re gathering after a service at St Mary's 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.
Is Glynde close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you feed a lot of people?
Frequently, yes. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll tell you honestly how service will work.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including East Sussex. Find your area.

It needs no kitchen, so it works on drives, car parks and showgrounds where plated meals are hard.
These are some of the bookings we take:
- Big birthdays
- Work Christmas parties
- Staff lunches and team days

If you had Lewes and Laughton Levels in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans can’t simply park up and serve in a public park.

How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. In Glynde, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
