Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in North Camp
Open days and customer events work well too: people gather at the van and linger. We serve sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer staff parties and staff thank-you lunches.
Around North Camp, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A chip van suits all of them. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
What affects the price in North Camp
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Service time
- Parking and the way in
- Any minimum charge
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

To check availability and price, we need:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, everyone gets a break. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- No kitchen needed
- All the chip-shop extras
- A clear quote before booking

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
North Camp questions
How far is North Camp from London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you trade in Ramillies Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. We will agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
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 will take it from there.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Where the van can park in North Camp
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
