Common questions in Broadbridge
Is Broadbridge close to London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London.
Can you serve after a service at The United Reformed Church?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you park at our house?
Typically, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
When should we book for a summer party?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can the van come to our street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.
Do you need power or water from us?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Mention power and water and we will confirm the rest.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Broadbridge?
A buffet is easy but forgettable. A chip van gives guests something to talk about. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your party is.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- A clear quote before booking
Take a look at our pricing and what a fish and chip van costs.
What affects the price in Broadbridge
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Your choice of menu
- How far we travel
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long we serve
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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 solves that by cooking on site.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ensure the van can park legally
- Put allergy details in writing
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
When everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave the drive tidy.
A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.
The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Broadbridge drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Getting a price
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.
