A chip van near Plaitford Green
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Plaitford Green
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. For team away days and retirement send-offs, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
For farms and rural sites near Plaitford Green, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. Lunchtime staff treats in Plaitford Green are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Let us know the serving time

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
