Party fish and chip van in Brooks Green, cooked to order
Everything is cooked as people come up, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. On the menu are haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for neighbourhood get-togethers and engagement parties.
In a small place like Brooks Green, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
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.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Count children separately
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Put allergy details in writing
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, then serve as guests come up.
A gazebo by the hatch keeps the queue dry.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Autumn and winter parties in Brooks Green get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We serve hot from the hatch while the party carries on.

About the food
Gravy

Brooks Green: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Brooks Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Billingshurst station, about 2.6 miles west of the centre.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.

Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Sausage and chips, typically. Let us know numbers and ages.

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
