DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Party fish and chip van for your party in Burlow
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. Whether it is garden get-togethers and family celebrations after a christening, we can cook gravy, mushy peas and curry sauce.
In a small place like Burlow, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Parties in Burlow: homes, halls and local tips
Burlow is about 4 miles north of Hailsham, in East Sussex. For parties in Burlow, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. Burlow is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 17 miles away.
Within reach of Burlow are historic houses such as Horselunges Manor (2.8 miles south) and Michelham Priory (4.5 miles south). If you are hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on catering vans first. Burlow is within about 7 miles of the High Weald National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
We cover parties in every part of TN21 and the streets around it. Local streets include Chiddingly Road and The Hedgerows; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. We also bring the van to parties in Horam (1 mile north-east), Gun Hill (1 mile south-west), Lions Green (1 mile north-west), Hale Green (1 mile south-west) and Vines Cross (2 miles north-east).

What happens on the day
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Autumn and winter parties in Burlow get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Let us know the serving time
Ask for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
