Party fish and chip van for Shripney events
Party fish and chip van in Shripney, cooked to order
Birthdays, garden parties, anniversaries and christenings all suit a fish and chip van. It’s food every generation enjoys. On the menu are curry sauce, sausage and chips and gravy, and we are regularly asked to cater family reunions and summer garden parties.
Near Shripney, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Planning a party in Shripney
Shripney is about 2 miles north-east of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. For parties in Shripney, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. Shripney is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Shripney to Brighton (24 miles away).
If guests are coming by rail, Bognor Regis station is about 1.7 miles away. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Holy Cross Church, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards. Near the coast, within about 2 miles, a fish and chip van feels like a trip to the seaside, and we always plan for wind.
This part of West Sussex takes in PO22. Local streets include Shripney Lane, Shripney Road and The Marigolds; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Close by, we cover parties in Lidsey (1 mile north-east), Flansham (2 miles east), Westergate (2 miles north), Aldingbourne (2 miles north) and Eastergate (2 miles north). Within a short drive, we also cover Worthing (12 miles east), Chichester (5 miles north-west), Selsey (7 miles south-west), Littlehampton (6 miles east), Lancing (15 miles east) and Emsworth (12 miles west).
Well-known places in the area include Tote Copse Castle (1.8 miles north-west) and Bognor Regis Museum (2.1 miles south).
- Local schools include Felpham Community College (1.4 miles south-east) and The Regis School (1.5 miles south-west)

How the day works
Changes on the day are fine: we will adjust start times and pace. For a late-May party in Shripney, sunset is around 8:50pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. After dark, light the area around the van.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- Afterwards, we clear up and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Name one person we can call on the day
Ask for a quote
Each quote is put together for your party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

Prices and what affects them
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Access and parking
- Your choice of menu
- Service time
- Travel, tolls and road charges
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where the van would park
- Your date and serving time
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you’re ready: fill in our quote form.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
