How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Rochester Riverside
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. We’re often asked to cater charity days and summer team days, serving cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
Teams near Rochester Riverside often go for a lunch in the yard or car park. Tell us about the site and access. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
Step by step
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. For an end-of-day event in Rochester Riverside, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Rochester Riverside: your questions answered
Is Rochester Riverside close to London?
About 27 miles from central London.
Could you trade in The Paddock?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you invoice the company?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Ask facilities about access
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Give us break and shift times
Put bins near the hatch.
