Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Newbridge
Food is fried to order, so it is hot whether you’re first or last in the queue. For shift teams at depots and warehouses and charity days, we’ll put together a menu of mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
Near Newbridge, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
What happens on the day
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. Lunchtime bookings in Newbridge are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Planning help
Where the van can park in Newbridge
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
Newbridge is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Collect allergies in advance
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
Newbridge: your questions answered
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you come out to small places like Newbridge?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is normally ideal.
Can the van park on grass?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can we pay by invoice?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
What affects the price in Newbridge
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Any minimum charge
- Parking and the way in
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A picture of where the van would go
- Your date and serving time
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
