Fresh fish and chips in Fleeden
Corporate fish and chip catering in Fleeden, fried fresh
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Typical bookings include project milestones and a monthly Fish Friday, serving sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
Near Fleeden, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.

A chip van compared with other options
