How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Coombe Hill
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater retirement and leaving lunches and staff appreciation days.
In Coombe Hill, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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.
