Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Warbleton?

  • A monthly Fish Friday
  • Staff appreciation days
  • Warehouse, depot and site teams
  • Summer staff parties

Nearby historic houses include Horselunges Manor (4 miles south). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they typically set strict rules for vehicles.

15 questions to ask before booking

Allergies and dietary needs

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

  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Send allergies to us in writing

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.

Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

What the van needs

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • Staff lunches
  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Questions from Warbleton

Is Warbleton too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. 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 work to whatever the site needs.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Which areas do you serve?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Warbleton.

What do we need to supply?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

What will facilities need from you?

Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll go through it with you.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.

How the day works

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Warbleton, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
