Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Amberley
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. For warehouse, depot and site teams and celebrating a big win, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas and more.
Near Amberley, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Amberley
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Could you trade in Parham Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
Do you have documents for our site?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. After-work summer events in Amberley have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
