Corporate fish and chip catering in Blackfen, fried fresh
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. We’re frequently asked to cater lunch for site crews and leaving dos, serving mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips.
In Blackfen, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask facilities about access
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.
Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
Why book with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Hot food handed straight over
- A quote that spells everything out
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers

The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Who books corporate fish and chip catering in Blackfen?
People mix in the queue.
In Blackfen and nearby, the van turns up at all sorts of events. Some of the most common are:
- Customer days
- Fish Friday treats
- Warehouse, depot and site teams
- Summer staff parties
Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: Falconwood station, about 0.8 miles north-west, is the nearest station.
Before booking anyone
- How late numbers can change
- Whether there’s a minimum
- How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun
- The van’s size and access needs
Step by step
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. In Blackfen, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

What the van needs
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
