Corporate fish and chip catering for Rotherfield events
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Rotherfield
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. We serve cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and summer team days.
Near Rotherfield, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

FAQs for Rotherfield
Is Rotherfield too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What can staff choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards normally work well.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a spot will not work. What matters most:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

What happens on the day

Planning help
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Have a back-up for special diets
After the last group, we pack up.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
- 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
