BN10 covers everything from Peacehaven, Telscombe and Telscombe Cliffs to 0 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. In towns, plan parking and access; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground. 3 of the places we cover in BN10 are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan a sheltered side for the queue.

Peacehaven: If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Peacehaven Community School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like Ascension Church, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. Planning an evening event in Peacehaven? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:15pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; once it’s dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which suits guests who don’t eat pork.

What your quote should include

  • The deadline for final numbers
  • How much space the van takes up
  • Any travel, parking or access charges
  • How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:

  • Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch

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

Let everyone know when the food is ready.

Planning the van’s spot

BN10: your questions answered

What happens when we hire the van?

The van parks at your venue, we fry fresh and serve from the hatch.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

Do we need to provide anything?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

How long will the queue be?

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

Can fish and chips be the only food?

Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
