How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Falmer
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. For friday lunch treats and celebrating a big win, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips for your guests.
Near Falmer, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

How the day works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Lunchtime bookings in Falmer are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

For event organisers in Falmer
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
