How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Combe

Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. Popular choices include cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we are regularly asked to cater retirement send-offs and a monthly Fish Friday.

Rural businesses around Combe can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Organising for someone else?

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

The process

Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. Lunchtime staff treats in Combe are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Name one person we can call on the day

What a fish and chip van costs

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • The minimum booking
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How many people are eating
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

What we need to know

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Where the event is
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and time of the event

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

FAQs for Combe

Is Combe too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Combe from London?

Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can you feed staff across different shifts?

Yes, if we know the times. We will agree a service plan before the day.

How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Combe?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Can you cook in the rain?

The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

What paperwork do you provide?

Sites vary, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards generally work well.

Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
