Corporate fish and chip catering in Long Wittenham, cooked to order

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Popular choices include sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater summer team days and charity and fundraising days at work.

At country workplaces around Long Wittenham, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Diets, allergies and planning

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Send round an allergy question
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Give us break and shift times

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

What the van needs

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

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.

Organising for someone else?

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
