About our corporate fish and chip catering in Barnsole
Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it’s familiar and filling. For open days and customer events and charity days, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.
For farms and rural sites near Barnsole, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu.
The process
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer events in Barnsole have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

What else we do in Barnsole
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Collect allergies in advance
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Flag any coeliac staff
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll 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’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
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.
