Corporate fish and chip catering in Bloodden, cooked to order
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Popular choices include cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re frequently booked for open days and a monthly Fish Friday.
At country workplaces around Bloodden, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Why us?
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Service time
- Cod, haddock or both
- How far we travel
- The minimum booking
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The date and time of the event
- Expected numbers
- Allergies and diets you know about
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will come back with a clear quote.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Popular choices

Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Share the shift pattern
We can serve each shift in turn.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
