Corporate fish and chip catering in Kent Street

Step by step

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Summer events after work in Kent Street have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Kent Street

It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater celebrating a big win and charity and fundraising days at work.

Near Kent Street, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Kent Street? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

Why Kent Street hosts choose us

  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • A clear quote before you book
  • No kitchen needed

Read how we price and our guide to van hire costs.

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

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.

Questions from Kent Street

Is Kent Street too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Do you have documents for our site?

Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we will go through it with you.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

What do we need to supply?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

What food do you serve?

Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

How to compare vans

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Share the shift pattern
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
