Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Highcliffe
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. We are often asked to cater leaving dos and staff appreciation days, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
Work events near Highcliffe might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. The van works at any of them. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
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.
How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Summer events after work in Highcliffe have light until about 9:25pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
