About our corporate fish and chip catering in Carterton
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Whether it is retirement and leaving lunches and shift teams at depots and warehouses, we can cook mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips and more.
Workplaces in Carterton range from offices to industrial units. The van brings lunch to the team without anyone leaving. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.

What the van needs
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask facilities about access
- Consider a pre-order list
- Share the shift pattern
- Confirm allergies by email
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- How far we travel
- Whether a minimum applies
- The length of service
- Parking and the way in
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and time of the event
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Summer events after work in Carterton have light until about 9:30pm; in late May it’s about 9:00pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Carterton
How far is Carterton from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We’ll plan it with you.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, it is a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we will send a quote.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What you get with us
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- A van that becomes part of the event

What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Takeaway run or book a 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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
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.
