Corporate fish and chip catering in North Stoneham, fried fresh
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot whether you are first or last in the queue. We’re often asked to cater staff appreciation days and project milestones, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips.
For farms and rural sites near North Stoneham, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask facilities about access
- Put allergy details in writing
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Find out what documents the site needs
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

Why choose a fish and chip van in North Stoneham?
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. A lunch-break van visit in North Stoneham is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the van can get in
- Share the timings for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
