A fish and chip van or other catering?
A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why book our van in Newbridge
- Classic food your staff already know
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- We cover Newbridge and the whole of Hampshire
The process
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. For a staff lunch in Newbridge, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Newbridge: your questions answered
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Newbridge?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
