Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Cramhurst
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, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for a monthly Fish Friday and retirement send-offs.
Rural businesses around Cramhurst can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
How the day works
We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Summer events after work in Cramhurst have light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Send round an allergy question
Put bins near the hatch.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
What affects the price in Cramhurst
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Distance and any road charges
- Any minimum charge
- Numbers
- The length of service
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Cramhurst
Do you come out to small places like Cramhurst?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Cramhurst?
Milford (Surrey) station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre.
Do you cover Cramhurst?
We do. Cramhurst is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we’ll send a quote.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
