About our corporate fish and chip catering in Minley
It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. We serve sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater friday lunch treats and staff appreciation days.
Rural businesses around Minley can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
For planners, venues and organisers
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
