Christmas catering near Marehill
Marehill is about 10 miles north of Worthing, in West Sussex. Bookings in Marehill come in all shapes and sizes, but it always starts the same way: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. Marehill is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. Our bookings stretch from Marehill to Brighton (about 17 miles away).
If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like St Mary's Church of England Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well. Christmas fairs at a church such as Wiggonholt Church can book the van as a hot-food stall. Marehill is within about 5 miles of the South Downs National Park; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

What’s the nearest station to Marehill?
Pulborough station, about 1.6 miles west of the centre.
Is there something for children?

Is the fish gluten-free?

What if it is raining or freezing?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
