How corporate fish and chip catering works in Oxfordshire

Service is timed to your lunch break or shift pattern, so each group can eat within its break. On the menu are cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are frequently booked for staff appreciation days and lunch for site crews.

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Other local landmarks include East Oxford Primary School (less than half a mile south-west), Cheney School (within half a mile east), The Star pub (within half a mile west) and St Clement's Church (less than half a mile north-west).

Workplaces across Oxfordshire

From offices in Oxford, Banbury and Didcot to rural sites in Oxfordshire’s villages, a chip van feeds a team on site without anyone leaving. Parts of Oxfordshire are within a few miles of the Chilterns National Landscape and the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, so check venue rules on vehicles for countryside events.

Oxford: Nearby historic houses include Holywell Manor, Oxford (0.8 miles north-west) and Garsington Manor (4.1 miles south-east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for vehicles. Commuters will know that Oxford station is about 1.6 miles away. Lunchtime bookings in Oxford are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Diets, allergies and planning

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically

We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

Before you choose a spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

What a fish and chip van costs

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The day of the week
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Where the van would park
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

Each quote is put together for your staff event. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.

Should I sort the food myself?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Oxfordshire questions

How much space do you need?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

Generally, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.

Which areas do you serve?

We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
