How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Eversley
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. For team away days and open days, we can cook haddock and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips and more.
Near Eversley, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Any minimum charge
- How many people are eating
- How easy the site is to reach
- Distance and any road charges
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Your date and serving time
- Where the event is
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Allergies and diets you know about
Each quote is put together for your staff event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Eversley for staff days and team lunches
Eversley is about 3 miles north-west of Yateley, in Wokingham. From the centre of Eversley to the outskirts, the service works the same way: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. We take the van to 35 places across Wokingham, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Eversley to Reading (about 7 miles away).
Within reach of Eversley are historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (4.7 miles west). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for catering vans. Central London is about 36 miles from Eversley.
This part of Wokingham takes in RG40 and RG27, so your staff event can be anywhere in it.

Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Share the shift pattern
- Consider a pre-order list
- Flag any coeliac staff
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Eversley: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Eversley?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in Shepperlands Farm Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Do you come to Eversley?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Eversley. For a quote, use our quote form.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we’ll explain the options before booking.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. For a staff lunch in Eversley, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the 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.
How to prepare
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
A chip van compared with other options
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Hot food handed straight over
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
Read our prices page and the cost guide.
Space, access and the venue
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you. The main points are:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
