How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Cheriton
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. For charity days and lunch for site crews, we can cook pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
Rural businesses around Cheriton can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

- What the van needs: space, access, power
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- How many hours the van serves
What happens on the day
We do not 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 Cheriton are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
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’s crisp.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Ask facilities about access
- Share the shift pattern
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Cheriton
Is Cheriton close to London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Cheriton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to Cheriton?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Cheriton. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you work around shifts?
Tell us the shift and break times and we’ll plan service around them.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
About the food
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
What affects the price in Cheriton

Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Your date and serving time
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.
