A chip van near Ovington
Corporate fish and chip catering in Ovington, fried fresh
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Typical bookings include a monthly Fish Friday and warehouse, depot and site teams, with haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Near Ovington, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
Step by step
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. For a staff lunch in Ovington, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
