FAQs for Cooper's Green
Is Cooper's Green too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Frequently, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Bunting or lights make it even better.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.

For event organisers in Cooper's Green
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
Why us?
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
What we serve
- Sausage and chips
- Evening fish and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Plan bins by the hatch
Evening food usually goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance and before the party really gets going.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The date and time of year
- Distance and any road charges
- Your choice of menu
- How many people are eating

- The date and when you’d like to eat
