Corporate fish and chip catering in Buckland, cooked to order
Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it is familiar and filling. Whether it’s open days and summer staff parties, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
Near Buckland, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

FAQs for Buckland
Could you trade in Brockham Limeworks?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Buckland?
The closest is Betchworth station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, Surrey included. Find your area.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

Should I sort the food myself?
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 usually simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
