How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Ripple
We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so each group can eat within its break. For open days and lunch for site crews, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips and more.
At country workplaces around Ripple, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re 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.
