Fresh fish and chips in Rock
Corporate fish and chip catering in Rock, cooked to order
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. For open days and customer events and lunch for site crews, we can cook sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Rock, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A meal out takes everyone off site. A van comes to you. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Events in Rock and across West Sussex
- A quote that spells everything out
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
How it works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. For a staff lunch in Rock, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Have a level parking spot ready

What a fish and chip van costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of meals
- The date and time of year
- Service time
- The minimum booking
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The venue or postcode
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The date and time of the event

Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Send round an allergy question
- Ask facilities about access
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Rock
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 follow the site rules.
Is Rock too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Is grass a problem?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
- 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
