Corporate fish and chip catering for Plaistow events
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Plaistow
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. Typical bookings include workplace fundraising days and fish Friday treats, with pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Near Plaistow, 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.

Planning a team lunch in Plaistow
Plaistow is about 11 miles west of Horsham, in West Sussex. Whether your staff event is in the middle of Plaistow or on the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. We serve 371 places in West Sussex. We serve events right across the region, from Plaistow to Guildford (about 12 miles away).
The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 8 miles, which suits team days in the countryside.
For staff events in RH14, we just need to know where the van can park and roughly how many staff. We can serve a staff event on streets such as The Street, Loxwood Road and Oakfield or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere for the van. Other places close to Plaistow we cover include Durfold Wood (1 mile north-west), Ifold (1 mile east), Mackerel's Common (2 miles south), Loxwood (2 miles east) and Kirdford (2 miles south).

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Your choice of menu
- Any minimum charge
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Where the van would park
- A picture of the parking spot
- Anything awkward about the way in
Still finalising the details? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Takeaway run or book a 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 usually the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
