Corporate fish and chip catering for Fairwarp events

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Fairwarp

We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. On the menu are sausage and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we are often booked for end-of-project celebrations and lunch for site crews.

At country workplaces around Fairwarp, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Why book our van in Fairwarp

  • Classic food your staff already know
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Questions from Fairwarp

Is Fairwarp close to London?

About 34 miles from central London.

Do you come out to small places like Fairwarp?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can the van park on grass?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Fairwarp?

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.

Where will the van go on our site?

That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards usually work well.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

How much space do you need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • The minimum booking
  • Parking and the way in
  • Your choice of menu

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Where the van would park
  • The venue or postcode
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Your date and serving time

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Where the van can park in Fairwarp

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Lighting nearby for evening events

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

How it works

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. A lunch-break van visit in Fairwarp is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Ask for a quote

Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
