Corporate fish and chip catering in Riseley
How the day works
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Staff typically gather round the hatch as soon as we open. In Riseley, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Share the timings for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

FAQs for Riseley
Could you trade in Wellington Country Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Riseley?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What will facilities need from you?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Ask facilities about access
When service is finished, we pack up.
