Holton Hill: your questions answered
Is Holton Hill too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including East Sussex. Find your area.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Is it a full meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. You can add your own desserts if you like.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Where the van can park in Holton Hill
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
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.
Step by step
Changes on the day are fine: we’ll adjust start times and pace. Light matters for evening service: in Holton Hill, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Plan where the queue will stand

The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
With a barbecue, somebody ends up cooking all afternoon. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
What you get with us
- A clear quote before booking
- All the chip-shop extras
- Hot food handed straight over
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
Read our prices page and the cost guide.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
You shouldn’t have to worry about the food on the day. We arrive in good time, set up, cook and serve, and keep in touch with you about timings.
