Corporate fish and chip catering in Hamsey Green
Corporate fish and chip catering in Hamsey Green, cooked to order
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. For leaving dos and thank-you lunches for the team, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
At country workplaces around Hamsey Green, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Common questions in Hamsey Green
Could you trade in Blanchman's Farm?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How far is Hamsey Green from London?
About 13 miles from central London.
Where will the van go on our site?
That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards generally work well.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we’ll explain the options.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many people are eating
- Parking and the way in
- How far we travel
- Your choice of menu
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the space and the way in
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where the event is
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Summer events after work in Hamsey Green have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.
Why book our van in Hamsey Green

Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Ask facilities about access

- Send round an allergy question
- Ask staff to pre-order
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.

Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
