About our corporate fish and chip catering in Netley Marsh
We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so each group can eat within its break. Whether it is thank-you lunches for the team and customer days, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Near Netley Marsh, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
For planners, venues and organisers
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Why book our van in Netley Marsh
- Classic food your staff already know
- Served hot, straight from the hatch

- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

Netley Marsh questions
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you come out to small places like Netley Marsh?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How does payment work for businesses?
We’ll explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Consider a pre-order list
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.

Planning help
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Perfect for your staff event in Netley Marsh
People mix in the queue and talking.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
