How fish and chip van hire works in BH21

Rain does not stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. That makes it a safe bet for British events. We are often asked to cater festive get-togethers and weddings and evening receptions, serving mushy peas, sausage and chips and curry sauce.

The first sign we’ve arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
  4. Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
  5. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

A fish and chip van across BH21: what to know

There are 1 towns and 1 villages and hamlets in BH21, so the setting can be anything from Broxhill to a quiet hamlet: a level spot, a clear way in and a plan.

Broxhill: For a christening or celebration after a service at a church such as Church of St James, the van can serve at a hall or home nearby. In Broxhill, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:05pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

Planning for dietary needs

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Fewer choices mean faster service
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early

Fish and chips is best eaten straight away, so we fry to order as the queue moves.

Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.

How we price a fish and chip van

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Any minimum charge
  • How long we serve
  • The day of the week
  • Your choice of menu

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

  • The venue or postcode
  • Your date and serving time
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where you’d like the van to go

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
