Fresh fish and chips in Fleet
Corporate fish and chip catering in Fleet, cooked to order
Whether it’s a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater celebrating a big win and thank-you lunches for the team.
For businesses in Fleet, a Friday lunch in the car park is an easy win, as long as the site allows it. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Gravy

What affects the price in Fleet
These are the factors that matter most:
- The minimum booking
- The number of meals
- How far we travel
- Parking and the way in
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Your date and serving time
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

Before you choose a spot
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your staff event in Fleet. Lunchtime staff treats in Fleet are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.

Fleet: your questions answered
Could you trade in Oakley Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
How far is Fleet from London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London.
Can you invoice the company?
We will talk you through booking and payment.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can the van come to Fleet?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Fleet and across Hampshire. Send us your date to check availability.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
- 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
