Corporate fish and chip catering in South Wonston, cooked to order
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so nobody has to leave site. Whether it’s shift teams at depots and warehouses and summer team days, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
Near South Wonston, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Share the shift pattern
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

Questions from South Wonston
Which station is closest to South Wonston?
The closest is Winchester station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like South Wonston?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van come to our open day?
We do. Visitors love it.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can you come onto our site?
Usually, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. We will agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Corporate buffets are usually cold. A van serves hot food to order. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

Organising for someone else?
If you’re 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.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in South Wonston? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A short walk from the party
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
