About our corporate fish and chip catering in Barnes Street
The van parks in the car park or yard, so nobody has to leave site. We serve sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and celebrating a big win.
At country workplaces around Barnes Street, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the way in
- Numbers
- The menu and how many choices
- The length of service
Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A picture of where the van would go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The address or venue name
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we will come back with availability and a quote.

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Ask facilities about access
- Confirm allergies by email
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so service starts on time.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
