Corporate fish and chip catering in Longparish, cooked to order
Everything is cooked as people come up, so it’s hot whether you’re first or last in the queue. Whether it is open days and customer events and fish Friday treats, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Rural businesses around Longparish can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.
What comes out of the fryer
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.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Collect allergies in advance
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Share the shift pattern
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The length of service
- Parking and the way in
- Whether a minimum applies
- Distance and any road charges
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Expected numbers
- A picture of where the van would go
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The spot you have in mind for the van
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

The process
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Lunchtime bookings in Longparish are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Tell us when you want to eat

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. The van brings lunch to the team. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
Why Longparish hosts choose us
- A menu almost everyone likes
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Rain does not stop the fryers

Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
