Corporate fish and chip catering in Biddenden
Corporate fish and chip catering in Biddenden, fried fresh
We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so each group can eat within its break. On the menu are sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater summer team days and fish Friday treats.
Rural businesses around Biddenden can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
How the day works
We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Lunchtime bookings in Biddenden are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
