About our fish and chip van hire in South Mundham

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and usually costs more per head. A van needs only a level spot and permission to park. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why book with us
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- A clear quote before booking
- Hot food handed straight over
- Everything cooked to order at your event
How it works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. By late September, sunset in South Mundham is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Cod and chips

- Collect allergies with your RSVPs

You shouldn’t have to worry about the food on the day. We park, set up, fry and serve, and keep in touch with you about timings.
A chalkboard by the hatch with the menu keeps the queue moving.

What else we do in South Mundham
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
