How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Salters Heath
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. For open days and customer events and retirement send-offs, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
For farms and rural sites near Salters Heath, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Step by step

For a staff lunch in Salters Heath, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

- Something for staff to gather round
- Events in Salters Heath and across Hampshire
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Should I sort the food myself?
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.
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 generally the easier option.
Planning the van’s spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Staff lunches
- Mushy peas

- Agree the van’s spot with facilities

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
