Corporate fish and chip catering for Milton events

Corporate fish and chip catering in Milton, cooked to order

Everything is cooked as people come up, so it is hot whether you’re first or last in the queue. Popular choices include pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater project milestones and customer days.

Near Milton, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

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

For colleagues arriving by train, the closest railway station is Appleford station, roughly 2.5 miles east of the centre. Historic houses near Milton include Clifton Hampden Manor (4.3 miles north-east).

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Step by step

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. For a staff lunch in Milton, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Common questions in Milton

Do you come to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

How far is Milton from London?

Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can the van park on the street?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

What do we need to supply?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.

Where do you take the van?

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

Can the van park on grass?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

What can staff choose from?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

A closer look at the menu

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Find out what documents the site needs
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Flag any coeliac staff

We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

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’ll work through them with you.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
