Corporate fish and chip catering in Albury Heath
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Albury Heath
Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. For project milestones and charity days, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
At country workplaces around Albury Heath, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Ask facilities about access
- Give us break and shift times
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
