Corporate fish and chip catering in Newington, cooked to order
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. For summer team days and shift teams at depots and warehouses, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.
Near Newington, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

How it works
You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first staff wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Lunchtime staff treats in Newington are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
