Corporate fish and chip catering for Horton events
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Horton
Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. Whether it is friday lunch treats and lunch for site crews, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.
Rural businesses around Horton can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 nobody has to miss the staff event.

FAQs for Horton
Can the van park in Horton Country Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you come out to small places like Horton?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, Surrey included. Find your area.
What will facilities need from you?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
