Planning for dietary needs

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Confirm allergies by email

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Nag's Head

Facilities can deal with us directly, and we will go through what your site needs from us. Typical bookings include open days and workplace fundraising days, serving mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

Around Nag's Head, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams typically need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Common questions in Nag's Head

What’s the nearest station to Nag's Head?

Drayton Park station, about 0.6 miles south-east of the centre.

Could you trade in Whittington Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.

Do we need to provide anything?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

Often, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. We will agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What you get with us

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Hot food handed straight over

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Numbers
  • The length of service
  • How far we travel

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Where the van would park
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Dietary needs, with numbers

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Food your guests will love

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

How it works

We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. In Nag's Head, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Plan where the queue will stand

Getting a price

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
