Corporate fish and chip catering in St Paul's Cray, cooked to order
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. For end-of-project celebrations and open days, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
Around St Paul's Cray, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams usually need to approve the van, and access needs planning. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Lunchtime staff treats in St Paul's Cray are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day

Can the van park in Chislehurst Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What can staff choose from?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can you cook in the rain?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.

Yes. Visitors love it.

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
