Corporate fish and chip catering in Burham
The process
We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. Lunchtime staff treats in Burham are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:00pm in late September.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Make sure the van can get in
- Let us know the serving time

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Burham
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. We’re frequently asked to cater end-of-project celebrations and charity days, with pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
At country workplaces around Burham, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Questions from Burham
How far is Burham from London?
About 27 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the van park in Burham Marsh?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.
Do you come to Burham?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Burham and across Medway. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for staff.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
