Fresh fish and chips in Church Town
Corporate fish and chip catering in Church Town, cooked to order
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. On the menu are pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater project milestones and thank-you lunches for the team.
For farms and rural sites near Church Town, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Bookings across Surrey, including Church Town
- No surprises in your quote

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Church Town
How far is Church Town from London?
About 17 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you trade in Bay Pond?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
