Corporate fish and chip catering in Egerton, cooked to order
Facilities can deal with us directly, and we will go through what your site needs from us. On the menu are cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we are frequently booked for summer staff parties and friday lunch treats.
Rural businesses around Egerton can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Summer events after work in Egerton have light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Egerton: your questions answered
How far is Egerton from London?
About 41 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Egerton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
