How corporate fish and chip catering works in Hampshire

Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We are often asked to cater retirement and leaving lunches and a monthly Fish Friday, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips.

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your staff event in Hampshire.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Pricing in Hampshire

The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Business events across Hampshire

Whether your team is in Basingstoke, Winchester and Gosport or at a rural site in Hampshire, a chip van brings lunch to them without anyone leaving. Parts of Hampshire are within a few miles of the New Forest National Park, the South Downs National Park and the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles. Around 143 places in Hampshire are close to the coast, where we always think about shelter for the queue, and fish and chips feels right at home.

Basingstoke: Within reach of Basingstoke are historic houses such as The Vyne (2.9 miles north). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van. The A30 and A33 put Basingstoke within easy reach for the van. A lunch-break van visit in Basingstoke is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 4:00pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.

Why a fish and chip van works

It is hot food on site, whatever the weather.

A fish and chip van suits almost any gathering. People in Hampshire book the van for events such as:

  • Celebrating a big win
  • Summer team days
  • Friday lunch treats
  • Warehouse, depot and site teams

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How long we serve
  • Access and parking
  • Your choice of menu
  • Distance and any road charges

Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
