Fresh fish and chips in Ashurst

Allergies and dietary needs

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Send round an allergy question
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Have a back-up for special diets

When service is finished, we pack up.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

About our corporate fish and chip catering in Ashurst

Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it’s familiar and filling. On the menu are haddock and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for warehouse, depot and site teams and open days and customer events.

At country workplaces around Ashurst, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

The process

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer events in Ashurst have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Give us a contact for the day

Our booking checklist

Working with your venue

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Before you choose a spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we serve

  • Cod and chips
  • Staff lunches
  • Pie and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Mushy peas

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
