How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The day of the week
  • Access and parking
  • How far we travel

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

What to tell us

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Expected numbers
  • Where the van would park

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Brede, fried fresh

The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Typical bookings include summer team days and friday lunch treats, with pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

For farms and rural sites near Brede, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How the day works

Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. In Brede, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Brede: your questions answered

Is Brede close to London?

Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Which station is closest to Brede?

Doleham station, about 1.2 miles south-east of the centre.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, East Sussex included. See all areas.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Can you park on the road outside?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What’s on the menu?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Can you feed staff across different shifts?

Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will plan it with you.

Does the batter contain gluten?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

15 questions to ask before you book

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Should I sort the food myself?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
