How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Sidlesham
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. For team away days and a monthly Fish Friday, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Near Sidlesham, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Sidlesham
How far is Sidlesham from London?
About 58 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Sidlesham?
The closest is Chichester station, roughly 3.9 miles away.
Where will the van go on our site?
Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards usually work well.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you work around shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A short walk from the party
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
