Food your guests will love
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Hanover, cooked to order
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff do not have to go anywhere. Whether it is charity days and retirement and leaving lunches, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips for your guests.
Around Hanover, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer events in Hanover have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Ask facilities about access
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

Common questions in Hanover
Could you trade in Queen's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Do you cover Hanover?
We do. Hanover is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.

For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for catering vans. The South Downs National Park is within about 7 miles, which suits team days in the countryside. The coast is within about a mile, so a chip van lunch feels like a day at the seaside.

We can serve a staff event on streets such as Elmore Road, London Road and Milton Road, wherever the van can park.

Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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 you get to enjoy the day.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Hanover?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
