DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book 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 solves that by cooking on site.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Hackbridge, cooked to order
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. For lunch for site crews and open days and customer events, we can cook sausage and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips for your guests.
Around Hackbridge, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Put allergy details in writing
- Consider a pre-order list
- Check with facilities where the van can park
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
