Corporate fish and chip catering for Steven's Crouch events
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Steven's Crouch, cooked to order
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. We’re often asked to cater team away days and retirement send-offs, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Steven's Crouch, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For a staff lunch in Steven's Crouch, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
