About our corporate fish and chip catering in Chilton
We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we’ll go through what your site needs from us. Popular choices include sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for open days and customer events and staff appreciation days.
Around Chilton, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A chip van suits all of them. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
The process
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. Summer events after work in Chilton have light until about 9:15pm; in late May it is about 8:45pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Before we arrive
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Chilton questions
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park in Sandwich and Pegwell Bay?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
