Corporate fish and chip catering in Kemptown
How it works
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. For a staff lunch in Kemptown, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
How to prepare
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Tell us when you want to eat

Common questions in Kemptown
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Could you trade in Queen's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Brighton and Hove included. See all areas.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, if we know the times. We will agree a service plan before the day.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.

Planning a team lunch in Kemptown
Kemptown is about 1 mile south-east of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. For staff events in Kemptown, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. We serve 30 places across Brighton and Hove, from the larger towns to small villages.
Nearby historic houses include Royal Pavilion (1 mile west) and Preston Manor & Gardens (2.3 miles north-west). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for catering vans. Kemptown is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area. The South Downs National Park is within about 7 miles, which suits team days in the countryside. The coast is within about a mile, so a chip van lunch feels like a day at the seaside.
We take the van to staff events all over the BN2 postcode area. Local streets include Abbey Road, Manor Road and Eastern Road; a staff event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. If your venue is just outside Kemptown, we also cover Whitehawk (1 mile north-east), Carlton Hill (1 mile north-west), Hanover (1 mile north-west), Brighton (1 mile north-west) and West Hill (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Brighton and Hove (3 miles north-west), Hove (3 miles west), Aldrington (3 miles west), Withdean (3 miles north-west), Hangleton (4 miles north-west) and Patcham (4 miles north-west). Kemptown is among the bigger towns we cover in Brighton and Hove, with plenty of venues for staff events.
A little further out are Brighton Motor Museum (under half a mile south-west) and Churchill Square (1.4 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Newmarket Hill and Whitehawk Hill.
- Nearby schools include St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School (under half a mile north) and Brighton Girls (1.7 miles north-west)
- Local pubs include Saint George's Inn (under half a mile north-west)
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- How long we serve
- Your choice of menu
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Check with facilities where the van can park
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so service starts on time.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A short walk from the party
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Access wide and high enough for the van
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
From the hatch
- Staff lunches
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
- 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
