Corporate fish and chip catering in Rotherwick
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Rotherwick
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. We are often asked to cater warehouse, depot and site teams and celebrating a big win, with pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Near Rotherwick, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Rotherwick
How far is Rotherwick from London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Rotherwick too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you come onto our site?
Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards generally work well.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Rotherwick.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. Visitors love it.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
