Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Mockbeggar
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. We are often asked to cater open days and customer events and team away days, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
Near Mockbeggar, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Looking after everyone
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Give us break and shift times
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Is Mockbeggar too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
What if the weather’s bad?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
