Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Newchurch
We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we will confirm what we can provide for your site’s paperwork. On the menu are cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater customer days and staff appreciation days.
For farms and rural sites near Newchurch, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Ask facilities about access
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
For somewhere as remote as Newchurch, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your staff event. For a staff lunch in Newchurch, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 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.
How to prepare
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Share the timings for the day

Questions from Newchurch
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Is Newchurch too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, 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.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
