Book the van in East Wittering

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in East Wittering

Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We are often asked to cater customer days and workplace fundraising days, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips.

Around East Wittering, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Step by step

Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. For an end-of-day event in East Wittering, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Planning help

Looking after everyone

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Share the shift pattern
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

Space, access and the venue

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Popular choices

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

FAQs for East Wittering

Can you serve near the sea around East Wittering?

Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Is East Wittering close to London?

Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London.

Can you serve children?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.

Is the food cooked at the event?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. 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.

What you get with us

  • Rain does not stop the fryers
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • We cover East Wittering and the whole of West Sussex

15 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in East Wittering

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Numbers
  • How far we travel
  • The menu and how many choices
  • Service time

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

Details that help

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The date and time of the event
  • Where the van would park
  • Expected numbers

Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

About the food

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
