A chip van near Felpham
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Party fish and chip van for your party in Felpham
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. We’re often asked to cater engagement parties and summer garden parties, with pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
In a place like Felpham, a party at home is typically the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the lane, and we will do the rest. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The day of the week
- The number of meals
- Service time
- How far we travel
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Felpham questions
How far is Felpham from London?
About 55 miles from central London.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: 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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Sunset in Felpham drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- We start with a few details about your party.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
