Fish and chip van hire for your event in Lagness
Few meals are as universally loved as fish and chips. That’s why a van works for so many kinds of event. We are frequently asked to cater wakes and gatherings after a funeral and fish and chip days at care homes, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Somewhere as small as Lagness, a field, yard or drive is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Lagness
Could you trade in Avisford?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is Lagness too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How fast is service?
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 service around it.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Planning a chip van in Lagness
Lagness is about 2 miles west of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. For an event in Lagness, the van can park on drives, in car parks and yards, and on firm lawns and fields. Lagness is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Lagness to Brighton (26 miles away).
A green space like Avisford is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like Church of St Giles, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. The coast is within about 3 miles of Lagness, so fish and chips feels right at home here. On windy days, we plan a sheltered side for the queue.
