Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the event is
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Your date and serving time
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Ask facilities about access
- Collect allergies in advance
- Have a back-up for special diets
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Where the van can park in Guilton
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A spot near your staff
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

- Staff lunches

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. The van brings lunch to the team. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

A closer look at the menu
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’s a favourite in colder months.
The process
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. For a staff lunch in Guilton, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
