How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Halfway
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. Popular choices include mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater shift teams at depots and warehouses and a monthly Fish Friday.
For farms and rural sites near Halfway, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
How it works
On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. After-work summer events in Halfway have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

FAQs for Halfway
Which station is closest to Halfway?
Kintbury station, about 1.6 miles south-west of the centre.
Could you trade in Hamstead Marshall Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can we pay by invoice?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, West Berkshire included. See all areas.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Send round an allergy question
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Put allergy details in writing
- Let us know about coeliac disease
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.
