About our corporate fish and chip catering in Bordon
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. For charity and fundraising days at work and team away days, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips for your guests.
Around Bordon, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. 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.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Planning a team lunch in Bordon
Bordon is about 10 miles south-west of Aldershot, in Hampshire. Bordon is well within our area, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Bordon is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 16 miles away.
Bordon is about 43 miles from central London. The A325 and B3002 put Bordon within easy reach for the van. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 6 miles, which suits team days in the countryside.
Wherever your staff event is in GU35, we can fry fresh for your staff. Streets in the area include High Street, Station Road and Cobbett Square, and the van can serve a staff event on any of them with a suitable parking spot. You’ll find Bordon on the A325 and B3002, so it is easy for us to reach with the van.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Bordon: your questions answered
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to Bordon?
Liphook station, about 4.1 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you work around shifts?
Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.

The process
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Lunchtime staff treats in Bordon are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Corporate buffets are typically cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
