A closer look at the menu

Haddock and chips

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

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Maresfield, fried fresh

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. Typical bookings include summer staff parties and retirement and leaving lunches, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

Near Maresfield, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Collect allergies in advance

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

Maresfield: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Maresfield?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Maresfield from London?

About 36 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can the van come to our open day?

Yes. Visitors love it.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Maresfield.

How much space do you need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

What do we need to supply?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.

Do you have allergen information?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

How it works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with frying and serving. In Maresfield, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Getting a price

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can use our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Maresfield? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

What the van needs

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
