Corporate fish and chip catering in Elmfield, cooked to order
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and it gets people talking. We’re frequently asked to cater warehouse, depot and site teams and charity days, serving sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Around Elmfield, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do before you book.

How it works
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. After-work summer events in Elmfield have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Flat, firm ground for the van
Elmfield is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Cod, haddock or both
- How long we serve
- How far we travel
- Access and parking
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Details that help
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The address or venue name
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Elmfield: your questions answered
Can you serve near the sea around Elmfield?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Which station is closest to Elmfield?
Ryde St Johns Road station, in Elmfield itself.
Can you come onto our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Elmfield?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
