Corporate fish and chip catering in South Street
The process
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. A lunch-break van visit in South Street is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:00pm in late September.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Corporate fish and chip catering in South Street, fried fresh
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. For thank-you lunches for the team and summer staff parties, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips and more.
Near South Street, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Where do you take the van?

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
