Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Alvescot
Service is timed to your lunch break or shift pattern, so each group can eat within its break. We’re often asked to cater thank-you lunches for the team and project milestones, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Alvescot, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

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.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Food your guests will love
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A short walk from the party
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
