About our corporate fish and chip catering in Potter's Green

Rural businesses around Potter's Green can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

What the van needs

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How it works
We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Lunchtime bookings in Potter's Green are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Send us 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.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
How to prepare
- Clear the route for the van
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Planning help
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
Why us?
- Something for staff to gather round
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
