Party fish and chip van in Town Row, fried fresh

With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. For christenings and naming days and garden parties and summer get-togethers, we can cook curry sauce, cod and chips and mushy peas for your guests.

Near Town Row, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

FAQs for Town Row

Do you come out to small places like Town Row?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Town Row from London?

Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

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.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.

What food do you serve?

Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can you do something for the children?

Most children go for sausage and chips. Let us know numbers and ages.

Town Row parties: what to know

Town Row is about 3 miles east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. Tell us where your party in Town Row will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. We take the van to all 289 towns and villages in East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 22 miles away.

Within reach of Town Row are historic houses such as Wadhurst Castle (4.4 miles east). If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on catering vans first. After a christening at a church like The Parish Church of St Denys, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Town Row, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.

For parties in TN6, we just need to know where the van can park and a serving time. Local streets include Station Road, Station Close and Spout Hill; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. For parties just outside Town Row, we cover Rotherfield (1 mile south-west), High Cross (1 mile south), Argos Hill (1 mile south), Mark Cross (1 mile north-east) and Woolbridge (2 miles south). Further out, we also take the van to Hailsham (13 miles south), Crowborough (3 miles west), Uckfield (8 miles south-west), South Malling (15 miles south-west), Heathfield (6 miles south) and Upper Horsebridge (12 miles south).

How the day works

There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your party. The frying and serving are down to us. Autumn and winter parties in Town Row get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
