About our corporate fish and chip catering in Key's Green
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff do not have to go anywhere. Typical bookings include friday lunch treats and end-of-project celebrations, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips.
Near Key's Green, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Key's Green?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.

Prices and what affects them
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Parking and the way in
- Service time
- The number of meals
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The address or venue name
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A picture of where the van would go
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

- Give us break and shift times
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Ask facilities about access
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
