Looking after everyone
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Send round an allergy question
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Fawkham Green
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. On the menu are cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater summer team days and project milestones.
Rural businesses around Fawkham Green can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. For an end-of-day event in Fawkham Green, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of menu
- The day of the week
- Distance and any road charges
- How easy the site is to reach
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where you’d like the van to go
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

About the food
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
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.
What the van needs
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Flat, firm ground for the van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
