How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Haywards Heath
Everything is cooked as people come up, so it is hot whether you are first or last in the queue. We’re frequently asked to cater lunch for site crews and project milestones, serving sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
Workplaces in Haywards Heath range from offices to industrial units. A chip van feeds the team on site without anyone leaving. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Prices and what affects them

Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

A fish and chip van or other catering?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
