Corporate fish and chip catering in Privett, fried fresh
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Whether it is project milestones and summer staff parties, we can cook haddock and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips for your guests.
Near Privett, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A spot near your staff
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Privett
Do you come out to small places like Privett?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Privett?
The closest is Petersfield station, roughly 4.7 miles away.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Where will the van go on our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A van serves hot food to order. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why us?
- A clear quote before you book
- All the chip-shop extras
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- A van that becomes part of the event

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
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.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Share the shift pattern
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Send allergies to us in writing
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
