Corporate fish and chip catering for Roedean events
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Roedean
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. On the menu are pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we are often booked for end-of-project celebrations and charity and fundraising days at work.
At country workplaces around Roedean, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, everyone gets a break. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

The process
The first sign we’ve arrived is normally the smell. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. A lunch-break van visit in Roedean is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

What the van needs
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A spot near your staff
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
- Staff lunches
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Questions from Roedean
Could you trade in Whitehawk Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
Where will the van go on our site?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Consider a pre-order list
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
- 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
