Fresh fish and chips in Netley
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Netley
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. We serve cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we’re often booked for charity days and a monthly Fish Friday.
For businesses around Netley, a staff lunch in the yard is easy to arrange. Let us know about the site. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A spot near your staff
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Consider a pre-order list
- Put allergy details in writing
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we are ready when the first group comes out.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
How it works
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. Lunchtime staff treats in Netley are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 4:00pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
What does it cost to hire the van?

Who clears up?

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
