Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Hensting
Is Hensting too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Hensting from London?
About 62 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Hensting, fried fresh
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. Whether it’s retirement send-offs and team away days, we can cook cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas and more.
For farms and rural sites near Hensting, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Numbers
- Distance and any road charges
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Anything awkward about the way in

- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
