Corporate fish and chip catering in Shalstone

How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Shalstone

Service is timed to your lunch break or shift pattern, so nobody misses out. We are often asked to cater celebrating a big win and fish Friday treats, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

For farms and rural sites near Shalstone, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers

Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Access and parking
  • How far we travel
  • The day of the week

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Details that help

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Your date and serving time
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Anything awkward about the way in

How the day works

You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Summer events after work in Shalstone have light until about 9:30pm; in late May it is about 9:00pm.

  1. First, tell us about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Choosing a fish and chip van

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Shalstone

Is Shalstone too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Shalstone from London?

About 55 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

That is up to your site, but car parks and yards generally work well.

How does payment work for businesses?

Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. See all areas.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Who clears up?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Corporate buffets are generally cold. A van serves hot food to order. Larger groups normally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book our van in Shalstone

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • We cover Shalstone and the whole of Buckinghamshire

Take a look at how we price and the cost guide.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

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.
