Corporate fish and chip catering for Lyneham events
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Lyneham
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so nobody has to leave site. For retirement and leaving lunches and fish Friday treats, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips and more.
Rural businesses around Lyneham can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Planning the van’s spot
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:
- A short walk from the party
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lyneham?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
