Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Caldecott
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. We’re often asked to cater lunch for site crews and customer days, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips.
Work events near Caldecott might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. A chip van suits all of them. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Caldecott questions
Can the van park in Albert Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Caldecott?
Culham station, about 2.3 miles east of the centre.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Caldecott.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A short walk from the party
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
From the hatch
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
