Stubbington questions
We are gathering after a service at Holy Rood Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Stubbington close to London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. For a late-May party in Stubbington, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. After dark, light the area around the van.
- 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.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us a contact for the day

Each quote is put together for your party. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- A photo of the parking spot
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
