Book the van in Brightwalton

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Brightwalton

We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Popular choices include mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and we are often booked for charity and fundraising days at work and team away days.

Near Brightwalton, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do before you book.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

What you get with us

  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

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

How it works

Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. After-work summer events in Brightwalton have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site

Looking after everyone

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

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

Popular choices

  • Pie and chips
  • Staff lunches
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
