How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Bramber
It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Whether it’s leaving dos and lunch for site crews, we can cook pie and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas and more.
Rural businesses around Bramber can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Common questions in Bramber
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Could you trade in Hillside Park (parke sa Hiniusang Gingharian)?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Does the batter contain gluten?
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.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Staff usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. After-work summer events in Bramber have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Let us know the serving time
