How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Sheet
Office teams, drivers and warehouse staff all love it, because it is familiar and filling. We’re often asked to cater customer days and friday lunch treats, serving mushy peas, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Sheet, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do before you book.
Staff lunches in Sheet: access and travel
Sheet is about 1 mile north-east of Petersfield, in Hampshire. We cover Sheet as standard, so your staff event just needs a date, a spot for the van and a serving time. Sheet is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Sheet to Guildford (22 miles away).

Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Cod, haddock or both
- The day of the week
- How far we travel
- Service time
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The spot you have in mind for the van
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in Sheet, and we’ll check the date and send a price.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Sheet questions

A chip van compared with other options
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. Lunchtime staff treats in Sheet are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- 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
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Let us know the serving time
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Mushy peas

Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
