Corporate fish and chip catering for Mytchett events
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Mytchett
Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We are often asked to cater charity days and open days, serving mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips.
Around Mytchett, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
For event organisers in Mytchett
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Mytchett questions
Can the van park in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Mytchett?
Farnborough North station, about 1.1 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. Visitors love it.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
What you get with us
- No surprises in your quote
- No kitchen needed
- We cover Mytchett and the whole of Surrey
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
How it works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. For an end-of-day event in Mytchett, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Ensure the van can get in

Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask facilities about access
- Put allergy details in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Service time
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
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.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where the van would park
- A picture of the space and the way in
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
