East Lavant questions
How far is East Lavant from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like East Lavant?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
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.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Why book with us
- Bookings across West Sussex, including East Lavant
- No surprises in your quote

Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Share the shift pattern
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need

What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How far we travel
- Your choice of menu
- How many people are eating
- Parking and the way in
Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
