Sutton for staff days and team lunches

Sutton is about 9 miles north-west of Littlehampton, in West Sussex. Around Sutton, we park wherever there is level, firm ground, close to your staff. Sutton is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 22 miles away.

Within reach of Sutton are historic houses such as Bignor Roman Villa (0.8 miles east) and Petworth House (4.3 miles north). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van. For colleagues arriving by train, the nearest station is Amberley station, about 3.7 miles south-east. With the South Downs National Park within about 4 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange.

FAQs for Sutton

Which station is closest to Sutton?

The closest is Amberley station, roughly 3.7 miles away.

Is Sutton close to London?

Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you do customer events and open days?

We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.

What if we only have street parking?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What about staff who don’t eat fish?

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

Is the fish gluten-free?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Can we pay by invoice?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

Is grass a problem?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

What happens on the day

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we will adjust start times and pace to suit your staff event. A lunch-break van visit in Sutton is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 4:00pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Clear the route for the van

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Any minimum charge
  • Your choice of menu
  • How far we travel
  • The length of service

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

Getting an accurate quote

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • The date and time of the event
  • The address or venue name
  • A picture of the space and the way in

The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.

Planning the van’s spot

We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Flat, firm ground for the van

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

From the hatch

  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Staff lunches

Organising for someone else?

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
