Corporate fish and chip catering in Fittleworth
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Fittleworth
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We serve pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater retirement and leaving lunches and end-of-project celebrations.
Near Fittleworth, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Fittleworth questions
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 work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Fittleworth?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you work around shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
What happens on the day
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For a staff lunch in Fittleworth, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Make sure the van can get in
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
