About our corporate fish and chip catering in Ardington
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. Typical bookings include summer team days and lunch for site crews, with pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Ardington, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Who books corporate fish and chip catering in Ardington?
It is hot food on site, whatever the weather, because the cooking is inside the van.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Warehouse, depot and site teams
- Retirement and leaving lunches
- Charity days
- Summer team days
Central London is about 56 miles from Ardington, well within our area.

What happens on the day
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your staff event. In Ardington, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A spot near your staff
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Ardington: your questions answered
How far is Ardington from London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Ardington?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you have documents for our site?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for staff.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
