We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so nobody misses out. We serve haddock and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater retirement send-offs and staff appreciation days.
For farms and rural sites near Lidsey, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

A chip van compared with other options
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. The van brings lunch to the team. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.
Why us?
- Quick service from the hatch
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Classic food your staff already know
- No surprises in your quote
Take a look at our prices page and what a fish and chip van costs.
Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Any minimum charge
- The day of the week
- Cod, haddock or both
- Numbers
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The address or venue name
- Where you’d like the van to go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Send us the date, the address or PO22 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. A lunch-break van visit in Lidsey is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Make sure the van can get in
Ask for a quote
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Lidsey questions
Is Lidsey too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you invoice the company?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
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.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Lidsey?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
