Fresh fish and chips in Segensworth
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Segensworth
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. On the menu are mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for retirement send-offs and charity and fundraising days at work.
Rural businesses around Segensworth can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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 solves that by cooking on site.

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Segensworth?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Give us break and shift times
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Ask facilities about access
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The menu and how many choices
- Numbers
- Whether a minimum applies
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Step by step
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Lunchtime bookings in Segensworth are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Let us know the serving time
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
How to get a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
