Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Broomhill
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. Popular choices include cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we are often booked for open days and customer events and charity and fundraising days at work.
At country workplaces around Broomhill, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
About the food
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Service time
- The minimum booking
- The number of meals
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. After-work summer events in Broomhill have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- First, tell us 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.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Clear the route for the van
