Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

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

What does the van need?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Is there something for children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a sandwich lunch, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The date and time of year
  • The length of service

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Where the van would park
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Anything awkward about the way in

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

How it works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. Lunchtime staff treats in Cookham are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.

  1. First, tell us about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear 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. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Tell us when you want to eat
