Planning an event in Wivelsfield Green?

Step by step

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Midsummer parties in Wivelsfield Green stay bright until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check access for the van and send a quote.
  3. We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Wivelsfield Green: your questions answered

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Is Wivelsfield Green close to London?

Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.

Do we need to provide equipment?

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.

Do you come to Wivelsfield Green?

We do. Wivelsfield Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Where the van can park in Wivelsfield Green

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Looking after everyone

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • A picture of the parking spot helps
  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Check the street’s parking rules

For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.

Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
