DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Rough numbers for adults and children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
The process
There is very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. Lunchtime staff treats in Poundon are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Confirm allergies by email
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

Cod and chips
