Corporate fish and chip catering for Abbotsford events
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Abbotsford
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. Whether it is warehouse, depot and site teams and thank-you lunches for the team, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
For farms and rural sites near Abbotsford, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do.

The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In Abbotsford, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Clear the route for the van
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

Planning help
Looking after everyone

- Send round an allergy question
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Any minimum charge
- Service time
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
