Fish and chip van hire in TN40: what to expect
There’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. It needs a level, firm spot to park and a clear way in, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. Popular choices include pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we are often booked for visits to care homes and day centres and wakes and celebrations of life.
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.

Chip van hire across TN40
There are 3 towns and 1 villages and hamlets in TN40, so the setting can be anything from Bexhill-on-Sea, Sidley and Bulverhythe to a quiet hamlet: a level spot, a clear way in and a plan. 3 of the places we cover in TN40 are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about shelter for the queue, and fish and chips feels right at home.
Bexhill-on-Sea: Coming by train? Bexhill station, about 0.6 miles south-east, is the nearest station. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as King Offa Primary Academy, can book the van as a food stall. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Bexhill-on-Sea, it stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
