For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Pixham
We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we’ll go through what your site needs from us. We serve pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for end-of-project celebrations and retirement send-offs.
Near Pixham, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

About the food
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask facilities about access
- Consider a pre-order list
- Give us break and shift times
- Flag any coeliac staff
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. For a staff lunch in Pixham, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Clear the route for the van

Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A short walk from the party
- Lighting nearby for evening events
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

A chip van compared with other options
A meal out takes everyone off site. A van comes to you. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What you get with us
- No surprises in your quote
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Quick service from the hatch
Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
