Corporate fish and chip catering in Newchapel
How it works
There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. Summer events after work in Newchapel have light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
What a fish and chip van costs
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Service time
- How far we travel
- How many people are eating
- How easy the site is to reach
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The address or venue name
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A photo of the parking spot
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A spot near your staff
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we serve
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
A fish and chip van or other catering?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- A menu almost everyone likes
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Newchapel
Can the van park in Centenary Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Newchapel?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Surrey. See all areas.
