Your questions about fish and chips for the wake in Broomershill
Is Broomershill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Broomershill?
Pulborough station, about 1.3 miles south-west of the centre.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
