Corporate fish and chip catering in Hampton, cooked to order
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. We are frequently asked to cater customer days and staff appreciation days, serving pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
Work events near Hampton might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. The van works at any of them. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The number of meals
- Service time
- The date and time of year
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the space and the way in
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary needs, with numbers
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Hampton: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Hampton?
The closest is Herne Bay station, roughly 1 mile away.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
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.
