Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Hothfield
We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we will confirm what we can provide for your site’s paperwork. On the menu are cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater retirement and leaving lunches and staff appreciation days.
Near Hothfield, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Planning the van’s spot
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. What matters most:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

FAQs for Hothfield
Do you come out to small places like Hothfield?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Hothfield close to London?
About 46 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
