How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Grandpont

Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it’s familiar and filling. We’re frequently asked to cater warehouse, depot and site teams and a monthly Fish Friday, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips.

Around Grandpont, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A chip van suits all of them. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

A closer look at the menu

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

How the day works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. Lunchtime staff treats in Grandpont are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Let us know the serving time

Questions from Grandpont

Can the van park in Raleigh Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

How far is Grandpont from London?

About 53 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, if we know the times. We will agree a service plan before the day.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What happens if it rains?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Space, access and the venue

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • A short walk from the party

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

From the hatch

  • Staff lunches
  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Cod and chips

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat

For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, everyone gets a break. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

What you get with us

  • Hot food handed straight over
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Rain does not stop the fryers
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

Organising for someone else?

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
