Corporate fish and chip catering in Godshill, fried fresh
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Typical bookings include fish Friday treats and shift teams at depots and warehouses, with mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Godshill, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will be straight with you about what we can do.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Godshill: your questions answered
Is Godshill 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.
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Lunchtime bookings in Godshill are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:05pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Share the timings for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How many people are eating
- How easy the site is to reach
- Service time
- The minimum booking
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Details that help
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many people, including children
