How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Mindenhurst
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. On the menu are sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for open days and customer events and shift teams at depots and warehouses.
Near Mindenhurst, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The length of service
- Access and parking
- How many people are eating
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A photo of the parking spot

Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
What the van needs
We will be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. What matters most:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A spot near your staff
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Questions from Mindenhurst
Is Mindenhurst too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van park in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
Do you have documents for our site?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
That is up to your site, but car parks and yards typically work well.
