Corporate fish and chip catering in Ascot

Corporate fish and chip catering in Ascot, cooked to order

It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. For customer days and warehouse, depot and site teams, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.

At country workplaces around Ascot, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Ascot: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Ascot?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Which station is closest to Ascot?

Ascot has its own station: Ascot station.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What does it cost to hire the van?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we will send a quote.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Normally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How long does set-up take?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Before you choose a spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

From the hatch

  • Staff lunches
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas

How it works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Summer events after work in Ascot have light until about 9:25pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  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. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

What a fish and chip van costs

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How far we travel

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: send us your details through our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Give us break and shift times

We can serve each shift in turn.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Next to a sandwich lunch, a chip van feels like a proper treat. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
