Planning an event in Drayton Parslow?
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Drayton Parslow
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Whether it is open days and customer events and leaving dos, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips.
Rural businesses around Drayton Parslow can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Ask facilities about access
- Give us break and shift times
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
