Step by step

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. For an end-of-day event in Funtington, summer gives you 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. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Let us know the serving time

Planning help

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Corporate buffets are usually cold. A van serves hot food to order. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Why book our van in Funtington

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Something for staff to gather round

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • The length of service
  • Your choice of menu

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Funtington

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Do you come out to small places like Funtington?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How long will the queue be?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.

Can the van come to our open day?

Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.

Do you come to Funtington?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Funtington. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.

About the food

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re 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
