What else we do in Broad Oak
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we are ready when the first group comes out.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

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. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
