About our corporate fish and chip catering in Blackheath
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. On the menu are sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for friday lunch treats and charity and fundraising days at work.
For farms and rural sites near Blackheath, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Blackheath: your questions answered
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Blackheath too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Where will the van go on our site?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.
