How it works
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your party. Sunset in Walberton drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Tell us when you want to eat

Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Questions from Walberton
Is Walberton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Walberton?
Barnham station, about 1.3 miles south-west of the centre.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.
What do children eat?
Most children go for sausage and chips. Tell us how many children to expect.
Can you come to a street party?
Often, yes. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
