How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Rose Hill

Open days and customer events work well too: people gather at the van and linger. For shift teams at depots and warehouses and summer staff parties, we can cook haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

Rural businesses around Rose Hill can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Questions from Rose Hill

Which station is closest to Rose Hill?

Uckfield station, about 3.1 miles north of the centre.

Do you come out to small places like Rose Hill?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Where will the van go on our site?

That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards typically work well.

Do you have documents for our site?

Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.

Can the van come to Rose Hill?

We do. We serve events in Rose Hill and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

What about staff who don’t eat fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.

The process

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. For a staff lunch in Rose Hill, daylight is not 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 9:15pm.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

How to prepare

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Clear the route for the van

For planners, venues and organisers

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The date and time of year
  • How many people are eating
  • The minimum booking
  • Distance and any road charges

The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • The venue or postcode
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Our booking checklist

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Why us?

  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • No kitchen needed
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • All the chip-shop extras

Read how we price and our guide to van hire costs.

  • 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
