Fresh fish and chips in North Waltham
About our corporate fish and chip catering in North Waltham
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. We are often asked to cater charity and fundraising days at work and project milestones, with cod and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips.
Near North Waltham, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Give us break and shift times
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
North Waltham: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to North Waltham?
The closest is Micheldever station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Is North Waltham close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll plan it with you.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- How far we travel
- The menu and how many choices
- The minimum booking
- The length of service
Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The spot you have in mind for the van
Each quote is put together for your staff event. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.

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 normally the easier option.
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.
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a spot will not work. The main points are:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A spot near your staff
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
What we serve
