Fresh fish and chips in Cooper's Corner

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Cooper's Corner, fried fresh

A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. For friday lunch treats and customer days, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.

For farms and rural sites near Cooper's Corner, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Consider a pre-order list

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.

Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.

Choosing a fish and chip van

What happens on the day

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. For an end-of-day event in Cooper's Corner, summer gives you light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How far we travel
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How long we serve

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Where you’d like the van to go

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.
