How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Clifton
We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so nobody misses out. We are often asked to cater charity and fundraising days at work and retirement send-offs, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Rural businesses around Clifton can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The day of the week
- The menu and how many choices
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Access and parking
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and time of the event
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
