Corporate fish and chip catering for Four Throws events
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Four Throws, cooked to order
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. Whether it’s charity and fundraising days at work and warehouse, depot and site teams, we can cook pie and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
Near Four Throws, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Staff lunches
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

FAQs for Four Throws
Is Four Throws too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Could you trade in Collingwood Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you cover Four Throws?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Four Throws is within our area and the rest of Kent. For a quote, use our quote form.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
