A chip van near Upper Beeding
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Upper Beeding: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Upper Beeding?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Mention power and water and we will confirm the rest.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. See all areas.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
