Corporate fish and chip catering for Chislet events
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Chislet
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, the van makes the day feel special. We’re often asked to cater charity days and customer days, serving haddock and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Chislet, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Common questions in Chislet
Can you serve near the sea around Chislet?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
How far is Chislet from London?
About 57 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Can you come onto our site?
Generally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
For planners, venues and organisers
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.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
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 cooks in front of your staff instead.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask facilities about access
For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
What a fish and chip van costs
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- The minimum booking
- The day of the week
- How long we serve
- Access and parking
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- A photo of the parking spot
