Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Easton
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. We are frequently asked to cater customer days and leaving dos, with haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
At country workplaces around Easton, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning the van’s spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
For somewhere as remote as Easton, early notice helps us plan the trip.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Before you book anyone
- What the price includes, item by item
- Whether there is a minimum
- What happens if the event is cancelled or moved
- When payment is due
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Classic food your staff already know
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
Food your guests will love
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. In Easton, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Give us a contact for the day

FAQs for Easton
Can you serve near the sea around Easton?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Is Easton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Easton.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
How does payment work for businesses?
We’ll talk you through booking and payment for businesses.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
