Corporate fish and chip catering in Cranleigh
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Cranleigh
It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because fish and chips is food everyone knows. On the menu are haddock and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for retirement send-offs and charity days.
Around Cranleigh, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

What happens on the day
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. For an end-of-day event in Cranleigh, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day

- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so service starts on time.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.

Common questions in Cranleigh
Is Cranleigh close to London?
Roughly 30 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you serve each shift?
Tell us the shift and break times and we will plan service around them.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
A chip van compared with other options
For a thank-you that lands, a chip van is hard to beat. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Takeaway run or book a 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.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
What affects the price in Cranleigh
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The length of service
- Whether a minimum applies
- Cod, haddock or both
- Access and parking
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
