Book the van in Cop Street
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Cop Street
It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because it is familiar and filling. Popular choices include haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips, and we are frequently booked for team away days and friday lunch treats.
Near Cop Street, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a staff lunch in Cop Street, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.

Preparing for the day
