Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Brading
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so nobody has to leave site. We’re often asked to cater friday lunch treats and charity and fundraising days at work, serving sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Brading, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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.
The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your staff can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Lunchtime bookings in Brading are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
How to prepare
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Tell us when you want to eat

Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Confirm allergies by email
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Ask facilities about access
When service is finished, we pack up.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
For somewhere as remote as Brading, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we serve
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips

Common questions in Brading
Is Brading too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve near the sea around Brading?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Where will the van go on our site?
That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
