Planners, venues and businesses

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Munstead Heath
Everything is cooked as people come up, so it is hot whether you’re first or last in the queue. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we are frequently booked for a monthly Fish Friday and project milestones.
Near Munstead Heath, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Share the shift pattern
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Send round an allergy question
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
The process
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. For a staff lunch in Munstead Heath, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Questions from Munstead Heath
What’s the nearest station to Munstead Heath?
Godalming station, about 1.5 miles north-west of the centre.
Can the van park in Phillips Memorial Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you come to Munstead Heath?
We do. We serve events in Munstead Heath and across Surrey. Send us your date to check availability.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Can the van park on grass?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Munstead Heath?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
A chip van compared with other options

Munstead Heath for staff days and team lunches
Munstead Heath is about 5 miles south of Guildford, in Surrey. For a staff event in Munstead Heath, the van can park on drives, in car parks and yards, and on firm lawns and fields. Munstead Heath is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we bring the van.
Commuters will know that Godalming station is about 1.5 miles away. Within reach of Munstead Heath are historic houses such as Loseley Park (3 miles north) and Chilworth Manor (4.3 miles north-east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for vehicles. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 7 miles, which suits team days in the countryside.
For staff events in GU8, we just need to know where the van can park. Nearby, we also serve staff events in Thorncombe Street (1 mile east), Hascombe (2 miles south-east), Birtley Green (2 miles east), Bramley (2 miles north-east) and Grafham (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Guildford (5 miles north), Woking (10 miles north), Camberley (13 miles north-west), Farnham (9 miles west), Dorking (12 miles east) and Frimley (11 miles north-west).

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A spot near your staff
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Flat, firm ground for the van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
