Corporate fish and chip catering in Mimbridge, cooked to order
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. We’re frequently asked to cater summer team days and shift teams at depots and warehouses, with pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Mimbridge, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
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.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Working with your venue
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Mimbridge: your questions answered
Can the van park in Milford Green and Coxhill Green?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Mimbridge?
Woking station, about 1.8 miles south-east of the centre.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What will facilities need from you?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Can we pay by invoice?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
Do you work around shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We will agree a service plan before the day.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
The process
The first sign we have arrived is typically the smell, about the time the first staff wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Lunchtime bookings in Mimbridge are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
How to get a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Have a back-up for special diets
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
