A chip van near Norton
Norton: your questions answered
Is Norton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in Castle Hill?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
What can staff choose from?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Do you cover Norton?
Yes, we do. Norton is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Norton
Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. Whether it is project milestones and retirement and leaving lunches, we can cook cod and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
At country workplaces around Norton, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Prices and what affects them
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The date and time of year
- Any minimum charge
- The number of meals
- The length of service
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies and diets you know about
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we will check the date and send a price.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
How it works
You don’t need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. For a staff lunch in Norton, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
