Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in St Michaels
The van parks in the car park or yard, so nobody has to leave site. Whether it is a monthly Fish Friday and leaving dos, we can cook haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
For farms and rural sites near St Michaels, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
The process
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. Summer events after work in St Michaels have light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:45pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
