For planners, venues and organisers

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What we serve

  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Staff lunches

Planning a team lunch in Chiddingly

Chiddingly is about 4 miles north-west of Hailsham, in East Sussex. Tell us where your staff event in Chiddingly will be, and we’ll plan the route and the parking spot. Chiddingly is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 15 miles away.

For colleagues arriving by train, the closest railway station is Berwick (Sussex) station, roughly 4.7 miles south of the centre. Nearby historic houses include Horselunges Manor (2.7 miles south-east) and Michelham Priory (3.1 miles south). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they typically set strict rules for vehicles. The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles, which suits team days in the countryside.

We also bring the van to staff events in Whitesmith (1 mile west), East Hoathly (2 miles north-west), Halland (3 miles north-west), Shortgate (3 miles west) and Blackboys (4 miles north).

Common questions in Chiddingly

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

Do you come out to small places like Chiddingly?

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

How do you handle allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Who clears up?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Lunchtime staff treats in Chiddingly are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
  • Name one person we can call on the day

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

Planning for dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Have a back-up for special diets

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
