How our party fish and chip van works in Horsemere Green
Birthdays, garden parties, anniversaries and christenings all suit a fish and chip van. It is food every generation enjoys. We are frequently asked to cater family celebrations after a christening and family parties with children, serving curry sauce, gravy and sausage and chips.
Country parties near Horsemere Green suit a chip van: cooked to order and eaten on the lawn. Plan a firm spot in case it rains. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Horsemere Green?
A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van gives people a choice. 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.

About the food
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Sunset in Horsemere Green is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. After dark, light the area around the van.

- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What affects the price in Horsemere Green
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Access and parking
- The length of service
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

Horsemere Green: your questions answered
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
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 follow the site rules.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can the van park on my drive?
It depends on the drive and the access. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll tell you honestly.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
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 service around it.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Put allergy details in writing
It’s worth telling the neighbours.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
