Corporate fish and chip catering in East Worthing

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in East Worthing

A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for project milestones and thank-you lunches for the team.

For businesses around East Worthing, a staff lunch in the yard is easy to arrange. Tell us about the site and access. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Why choose a fish and chip van in East Worthing?

A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Events in East Worthing and across West Sussex
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Before you choose a spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

What we serve

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

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Choosing a fish and chip van

What affects the price in East Worthing

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The day of the week
  • Distance and any road charges
  • The number of meals

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Where the event is

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

East Worthing: your questions answered

Could you trade in Beach House Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

How far is East Worthing from London?

About 49 miles from central London.

Do you serve visitors at events?

We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.

How long does set-up take?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, if we know the times. We’ll plan it with you.

How it works

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your staff event. Summer events after work in East Worthing have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Getting a price

Diets, allergies and planning

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

  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we are ready when the first group comes out.

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
