Corporate fish and chip catering for Boxgrove events

Corporate fish and chip catering in Boxgrove, cooked to order

The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. For customer days and charity and fundraising days at work, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.

Near Boxgrove, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Boxgrove?

It gets people out of their usual groups and talking.

Almost any gathering works with a fish and chip van. In Boxgrove, people book us for events such as:

  • Charity days
  • Open days
  • Staff thank-you lunches
  • End-of-project celebrations

Boxgrove is about 52 miles from central London, well within our area.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

For a staff treat people will remember, a fish and chip van is a great choice. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Bookings across West Sussex, including Boxgrove
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.

How the day works

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. For a staff lunch in Boxgrove, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Share the timings for the day

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Give us break and shift times
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Organising for someone else?

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Questions from Boxgrove

Is Boxgrove too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Is Boxgrove close to London?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Do you have documents for our site?

Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
