About our corporate fish and chip catering in Hazel Street
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and it gets people talking. For project milestones and staff appreciation days, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips for your guests.
Near Hazel Street, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Hazel Street questions
Is Hazel Street too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Can you serve each shift?
Tell us the shift and break times and we will plan service around them.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Give us break and shift times
- Send round an allergy question
For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
Working with your venue
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A meal out takes everyone off site. A van comes to you. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
