Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Chilmington Green, fried fresh

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
