Should I sort the food myself?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

For a relaxed celebration, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why us?

  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Read our prices page and the cost guide.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Show us where the van would go
  • Ensure the van can park legally
  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Ask guests about allergies when they reply

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A short walk from the party

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Parking and the way in
  • The number of meals
  • The day of the week

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.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and time of the event
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Tell us about your party in Nash Street, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.

Step by step

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Midsummer parties in Nash Street stay bright until about 9:15pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you’re eating late.

  1. It starts with your date, address and numbers.
  2. We check access for the van and send a quote.
  3. On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. Afterwards, we clear up and leave you to it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Name one person we can call on the day

Questions from Nash Street

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Can you serve after a service at The Parish Church?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Can the van park on grass?

Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Nash Street?

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.

Is there something for children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

For planners, venues and organisers

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
