A fish and chip van in Roser's Cross: local details
Roser's Cross is about 5 miles east of Uckfield, in East Sussex. We cover Roser's Cross as standard, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Roser's Cross is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 17 miles away.
If you had Passingworth Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park.

Ask your venue about vehicle access.

Fish and chip van hire in Roser's Cross, fried fresh
The queue at the hatch is part of the fun. People chat, the smell drifts across, and the food arrives hot. On the menu are haddock and chips, gravy and mushy peas, and we are regularly asked to cater garden parties and summer get-togethers and weddings, especially the evening.
Somewhere like Roser's Cross, a yard or firm field often works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

A chip van compared with other options
Ordering a takeaway for a crowd means long waits and food that cools on the journey. A van fries on the spot, so it is crisp when it is handed over. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Roser's Cross
Can the van park in Passingworth Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
Can you serve after a service at The Parish Church of All Saints?
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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
