What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Flemings
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and it gets people talking. Whether it’s lunch for site crews and friday lunch treats, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.
At country workplaces around Flemings, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
