Fresh fish and chips in The Haven

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

About our corporate fish and chip catering in The Haven

We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re frequently booked for retirement send-offs and friday lunch treats.

Near The Haven, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

The Haven: your questions answered

Which station is closest to The Haven?

The closest is Billingshurst station, roughly 3.4 miles away.

Is The Haven too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Where will the van go on our site?

Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards typically work well.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

Do you serve visitors at events?

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

What food do you serve?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Do you cover The Haven?

Yes, we do. We serve events in The Haven and across West Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.

What affects the price in The Haven

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The length of service
  • Any minimum charge
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Your choice of menu

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

What to tell us

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The venue or postcode

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

How to compare vans

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

On the menu in The Haven

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

The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Planning for dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Share the shift pattern
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Ask facilities about access

When service is finished, we pack up.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. Lunchtime bookings in The Haven are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Give us a contact for the day
