About our corporate fish and chip catering in Launton

A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. We serve sausage and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater open days and customer events and project milestones.

Near Launton, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

Our booking checklist

Diets, allergies and planning

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

  • Share the shift pattern
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities

For shift teams, we serve in waves.

Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A spot near your staff

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips

What a fish and chip van costs

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How many people are eating
  • The length of service
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What we need to know

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Allergies and diets you know about

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Working with your venue

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

How the day works

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. For an end-of-day event in Launton, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May, sunset is around 9:00pm.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the van can get in
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Share the timings for the day

Questions from Launton

How far is Launton from London?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to Launton?

The closest is Bicester North station, roughly 1.4 miles away.

Where will the van go on our site?

Often, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

What can staff choose from?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.

Can you cater for allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Is there a non-fish option?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
