Corporate fish and chip catering in Maplehurst, fried fresh
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Typical bookings include lunch for site crews and staff thank-you lunches, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
At country workplaces around Maplehurst, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
