Questions from Filmore Hill
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Filmore Hill?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can the van park on my drive?
Frequently, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Party fish and chip van in Filmore Hill, fried fresh
Everything is cooked as people come up, not left out on a table for hours. Typical bookings include birthday parties and children’s parties, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and curry sauce.
In a small place like Filmore Hill, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hiring a hall and a caterer adds up. With a van, home becomes the venue. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
