Fresh fish and chips in Camber

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Camber

We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. On the menu are mushy peas, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and we are often booked for shift teams at depots and warehouses and customer days.

Rural businesses around Camber can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Working with your venue

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

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Step by step

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, and we agree exactly where before the day. For a staff lunch in Camber, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Questions from Camber

What about events near the coast?

Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.

What’s the nearest station to Camber?

The closest is Rye station, roughly 2.9 miles away.

What do we need to supply?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Where will the van go on our site?

Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is generally ideal.

What about staff who do not eat fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Camber.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.

A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

What a fish and chip van costs

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How far we travel
  • How many people are eating
  • Your choice of menu
  • Any minimum charge

Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
