Corporate fish and chip catering for North Heath events
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. In North Heath, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
How to get a price
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in North Heath
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff do not have to go anywhere. Popular choices include sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater open days and customer events and summer team days.
Rural businesses around North Heath can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Questions from North Heath
What’s the nearest station to North Heath?
Pulborough station, about 2.4 miles south-west of the centre.
How far is North Heath from London?
About 39 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes. Visitors love it.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What affects the price in North Heath
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
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 cooks in front of your staff instead.
