Corporate fish and chip catering in Stanmore, fried fresh
We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we’ll go through what your site needs from us. We are often asked to cater staff appreciation days and end-of-project celebrations, serving sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
Teams near Stanmore frequently go for a lunch in the yard or car park. Tell us about the site and access. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Consider a pre-order list
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Flag any coeliac staff
Put bins near the hatch.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
Questions from Stanmore
Could you trade in St. Cross Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Stanmore?
The closest is Winchester station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for staff.
What can staff choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Frequently, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. Facilities will decide the spot.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. For a staff lunch in Stanmore, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
Getting a price
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.
