Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Confirm allergies by email
- Count children separately
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We park, set up, fry and serve, and keep in touch with you about timings.

Fish and chip van hire in Jevington, fried fresh
Keep it simple, or plan every detail: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We’ll recommend what fits. We are frequently asked to cater work Christmas parties and staff lunches and team days, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
For a rural spot like Jevington, the setting does plenty of the work. Let us know about access and ground conditions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

How the day works
We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Late September evenings in Jevington lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

Jevington questions
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Andrew: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
It can be. A portion of fish, chips and peas is a proper meal.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Does a chip van work for big events?
It depends on numbers and timings. Staggering groups and keeping the menu short both help.

Jevington is about 3 miles west of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. We serve events at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Jevington and nearby villages. Jevington is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our bookings stretch from Jevington to Brighton (15 miles away).
Historic houses near Jevington include Alfriston Clergy House (2.7 miles west) and Michelham Priory (4.8 miles north). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for vans, so check before you book.

The South Downs National Park is within about 3 miles of Jevington, and some venues there have rules about vehicles on site. Ask your venue about vehicle access. Jevington is within about 4 miles of the sea, so fish and chips feels right at home here. Sea breezes can be strong, so we think about where the queue will stand.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
