Fresh fish and chips in Broomfield
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Broomfield
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. We are often asked to cater a monthly Fish Friday and open days and customer events, with pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Broomfield, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
Space, access and the venue
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Staff lunches
- Haddock and chips

Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
The process
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. Lunchtime staff treats in Broomfield are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:00pm in late September.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Give us a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
How to get a price
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Planning help
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Ask facilities about access
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Give us break and shift times
- Put allergy details in writing
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- Service time
- Numbers
- The minimum booking
- Your choice of menu
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The address or venue name
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
What else we do in Broomfield
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Broomfield
Which station is closest to Broomfield?
The closest is Hollingbourne station, roughly 1.6 miles away.
How far is Broomfield from London?
About 36 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
