A chip van near Frieth

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we’ll go through what your site needs from us. On the menu are sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for thank-you lunches for the team and friday lunch treats.

Organising for someone else?

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Frieth? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The number of meals
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • How long we serve

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Your date and serving time
  • A picture of where the van would go

To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in Frieth, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Why choose a fish and chip van in Frieth?

Why us?

  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • Classic food your staff already know
  • Something for staff to gather round
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Frieth

How far is Frieth from London?

Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London.

Is Frieth too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

What does the van need?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

How do you handle allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Can you invoice the company?

We’ll talk you through booking and payment.

Do you have documents for our site?

Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Allergies and dietary needs

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Give us break and shift times
  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies

We can serve each shift in turn, as agreed in advance.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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.

  • 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
