Questions from Binsted
What’s the nearest station to Binsted?
Ford station, about 1.9 miles south-east of the centre.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Do you come to Binsted?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Binsted and the rest of West Sussex. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Can the van park on my drive?
That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll advise.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The menu and how many choices
- How long we serve
- How easy the site is to reach
- The number of meals
Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The address or venue name
- A photo of the space and the way in
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Expected numbers
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
What else we do in Binsted
Food your guests will love
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
The process
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. In Binsted, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you’re eating late.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A short walk from the party
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
