Corporate fish and chip catering in Walberton, fried fresh
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. Popular choices include mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for summer team days and leaving dos.
At country workplaces around Walberton, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Planning the van’s spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A short walk from the party
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Staff lunches

Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Give us break and shift times
Send a message round when the van opens.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Walberton
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Which station is closest to Walberton?
Barnham station, about 1.3 miles south-west of the centre.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Cod, haddock or both
- How far we travel
- Numbers
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go
- Expected numbers
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.
A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. After-work summer events in Walberton have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Make sure the van can get in
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Get permission for the van from the venue
