Pyecombe for staff days and team lunches
Pyecombe is about 4 miles south of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. Tell us where your staff event in Pyecombe will be, and we’ll plan the route and the parking spot before the day. We take the van to 371 places in West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages.
Pyecombe is about 42 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard. Historic houses near Pyecombe include Preston Manor & Gardens (4 miles south) and Portslade Manor (4.5 miles south-west). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for vehicles. With the South Downs National Park within about 3 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange. Within about 6 miles of the sea, fish and chips goes down well with any team.
Staff events anywhere in BN45 start with a parking spot for the van. Local streets include London Road, School Lane and Church Hill; a staff event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Neighbouring places where we serve staff events include Saddlescombe (1 mile south-west), Waterhall (2 miles south), Patcham (3 miles south), Westdene (3 miles south) and Hollingbury (3 miles south-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Crawley (15 miles north), Horsham (13 miles north-west), Worthing (12 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (7 miles north-east), Burgess Hill (4 miles north) and Shoreham-by-Sea (6 miles south-west).

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Questions from Pyecombe
Is Pyecombe too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Pyecombe from London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll plan it with you.
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.
Can you come onto our site?
That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards usually work well.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes. Visitors love it.
Can you invoice the company?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
For event organisers in Pyecombe
Organising a club, school or community event in Pyecombe? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
The process
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. After-work summer events in Pyecombe have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Let us know the serving time
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Parking and the way in
- Whether a minimum applies
- How long we serve
- How far we travel
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Where the van would park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A photo of the space and the way in

A chip van compared with other options
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. The van brings lunch to the team. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
