Why choose a fish and chip van in Broadbridge Heath?
A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your party.
Why book with us
- Something for guests to gather round
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Lighting nearby for evening events

Common questions in Broadbridge Heath
Is Broadbridge Heath close to London?
About 32 miles from central London.
We’re gathering after a service at St. John's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.
Can you do something for the children?
Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your party and we’ll send a quote.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Broadbridge Heath parties: what to know

For guests coming by train, Christs Hospital station, about 1.2 miles south, is the nearest station.

Broadbridge Heath is within about 8 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
