Corporate fish and chip catering in Mottisfont, cooked to order
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater open days and staff appreciation days.
Rural businesses around Mottisfont can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Mottisfont?

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- How easy the site is to reach
- How many people are eating
- The day of the week
- How far we travel
There’s 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.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the van would park
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Give us break and shift times
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Consider a pre-order list
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
Step by step
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Lunchtime staff treats in Mottisfont are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
