Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book our van in Burlow
- No kitchen needed
- Classic food your staff already know
- We cover Burlow and the whole of East Sussex
- A van that becomes part of the event

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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.
Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Burlow?
It suits shift teams, because service can be planned in waves.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Charity and fundraising days at work
- A monthly Fish Friday
- Leaving dos
- Celebrating a big win
Nearby historic houses include Horselunges Manor (2.8 miles south) and Michelham Priory (4.5 miles south). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.
