What affects the price in Netherfield

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The length of service
  • How far we travel
  • The minimum booking

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

What we need to know

The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Where the event is
  • The date and time of the event
  • Expected numbers
  • Anything awkward about the way in

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Netherfield

A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and it gets people talking. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for leaving dos and summer staff parties.

At country workplaces around Netherfield, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Should I sort the food myself?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

What happens on the day

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. For a staff lunch in Netherfield, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

How to prepare

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Have a level parking spot ready
