Corporate fish and chip catering in Hollingbourne
Corporate fish and chip catering in Hollingbourne, fried fresh
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. On the menu are haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for end-of-project celebrations and leaving dos.
Near Hollingbourne, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. We handle the cooking and serving. After-work summer events in Hollingbourne have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Get permission for the van from the venue

A chip van compared with other options
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Any minimum charge
- The menu and how many choices
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How long we serve
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The venue or postcode
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.

A closer look at the menu
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
What the van needs
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A spot near your staff
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Access wide and high enough for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
What we serve
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Staff lunches
- Pie and chips
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
