How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Bonnington

Questions from Bonnington
How far is Bonnington from London?
About 53 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
What can staff choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Check with facilities where the van can park
We can serve each shift in turn.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
