Corporate fish and chip catering for Curridge events

Corporate fish and chip catering in Curridge, fried fresh

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Typical bookings include friday lunch treats and celebrating a big win, with pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.

At country workplaces around Curridge, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Parking and the way in
  • The date and time of year
  • Your choice of menu
  • Distance and any road charges

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

Details that help

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

  • Your date and serving time
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Curridge?

It is hot food on site, whatever the weather.

Big or small, the van works the same way. Typical bookings include:

  • Open days and customer events
  • Charity days
  • End-of-project celebrations
  • Friday lunch treats

Within reach of Curridge are historic houses such as Shaw House (2.5 miles south-west) and Benham Park (4.1 miles south-west). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.

Questions from Curridge

How far is Curridge from London?

Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London.

Is Curridge too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Where will the van go on our site?

Typically, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

Do you have documents for our site?

Sites vary, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.

Can we pay by invoice?

Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

What’s on the menu?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Can you feed staff across different shifts?

Yes, if we know the times. We’ll plan it with you.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

Why book with us

  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • No surprises in your quote

How it works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. For an end-of-day event in Curridge, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it’s about 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
