Corporate fish and chip catering in Mitcham, fried fresh
Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it’s familiar and filling. We are frequently asked to cater summer staff parties and open days and customer events, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Around Mitcham, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
