For planners, venues and organisers

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Any minimum charge
  • The menu and how many choices

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

What we need to know

To check availability and price, we need:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

FAQs for Adur

How far is Adur from London?

Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London.

What about events near the coast?

Yes, of course. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, if we know the times. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.

Do you take everything away?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.

What will facilities need from you?

Sites vary, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Choosing a fish and chip van

The process

Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. For an end-of-day event in Adur, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. First, tell us about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Have a level parking spot ready

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Food your guests will love

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
