Corporate fish and chip catering for Grayswood events
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Grayswood
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff do not have to go anywhere. We serve pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater fish Friday treats and staff thank-you lunches.
At country workplaces around Grayswood, 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 be straight with you about what we can do.
A chip van compared with other options
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
What you get with us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- All the chip-shop extras
- We cover Grayswood and the whole of Surrey
- Fried fresh, not kept warm

A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. In Grayswood, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Get permission for the van from the venue
