What affects the price in Coneyhurst
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The menu and how many choices
- Numbers
- Any minimum charge
- The length of service
The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where the van would park
- The venue or postcode
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
Why Coneyhurst hosts choose us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Events in Coneyhurst and across West Sussex
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

How the day works
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. In Coneyhurst, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Count suppliers working late
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
Your venue coordinator or a nominated friend can let us know if things run late, so the food is still fresh.
A string of lights by the hatch makes a great photo.
Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Common questions in Coneyhurst
How far is Coneyhurst from London?
About 37 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Coneyhurst?
The closest is Billingshurst station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
That depends on your day. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
