About our corporate fish and chip catering in Ash
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. For team away days and workplace fundraising days, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips and more.
Teams near Ash often go for a lunch in the yard or car park. Tell us about the site and access. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

- Check with facilities where the van can park

Some teams make it a regular treat.
What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Lunchtime bookings in Ash are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
