Corporate fish and chip catering in Petersfield, cooked to order
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. Typical bookings include staff thank-you lunches and open days and customer events, serving mushy peas, cod and chips and pie and chips.
For businesses in Petersfield, a Friday lunch in the car park is an easy win, as long as the site allows it. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. For a staff lunch in Petersfield, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

Common questions in Petersfield
How far is Petersfield from London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will plan it with you.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
