Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Jenkins' Green
What’s the nearest station to Jenkins' Green?
The closest is Pevensey & Westham station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Can you serve near the sea around Jenkins' Green?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Start the road closure application early.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van gives people a choice. Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. Midsummer parties in Jenkins' Green stay bright until about 9:15pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Share the timings for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
