Corporate fish and chip catering in Lambourn Woodlands, fried fresh
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Typical bookings include open days and customer events and project milestones, with cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
Near Lambourn Woodlands, 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.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Have a back-up for special diets
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

FAQs for Lambourn Woodlands
How far is Lambourn Woodlands from London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Lambourn Woodlands too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
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.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
