Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Avon Castle
Can the van park in Avon Heath Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first.
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you invoice the company?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
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’ll send a quote.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Avon Castle

At country workplaces around Avon Castle, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do before you book.
How it works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Avon Castle, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Share the timings for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
