Fresh fish and chips in Albury
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Albury
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. We are frequently asked to cater staff appreciation days and retirement send-offs, with mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
Rural businesses around Albury can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and time of the event
- Where the van would park
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability straight away.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A short walk from the party

About the food
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, everyone gets a break. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.
What you get with us
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- A van that becomes part of the event
- No surprises in your quote
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. In Albury, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Consider a pre-order list
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
