Corporate fish and chip catering for Bicknor events
Corporate fish and chip catering in Bicknor, cooked to order
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and it gets people talking. Whether it’s celebrating a big win and staff thank-you lunches, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips and more.
Near Bicknor, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
For event organisers in Bicknor
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. For an end-of-day event in Bicknor, summer gives you light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Give us your final numbers and allergies

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The number of meals
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Anything awkward about the way in
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

Questions from Bicknor
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Bicknor?
The closest is Hollingbourne station, roughly 2.8 miles away.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
