Corporate fish and chip catering for Finstock events

Corporate fish and chip catering in Finstock, cooked to order

Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. On the menu are cod and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater end-of-project celebrations and retirement and leaving lunches.

For farms and rural sites near Finstock, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

What affects the price in Finstock

The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • The day of the week
  • Any minimum charge
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Numbers

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.

What we need to know

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The address or venue name

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

Step by step

We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer events in Finstock have daylight until about 9:30pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Questions from Finstock

What’s the nearest station to Finstock?

Finstock station, about 0.7 miles north-east of the centre.

Is Finstock too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is the food cooked at the event?

It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Can you cook in the rain?

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Can the van come to our open day?

We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.

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

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Can the van come to Finstock?

Yes, we do. Finstock is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for

After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

  • 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
