Corporate fish and chip catering in Stonecrouch
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Stonecrouch
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. On the menu are pie and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer staff parties and project milestones.
At country workplaces around Stonecrouch, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Tell us about access. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Stonecrouch: your questions answered
How far is Stonecrouch from London?
About 37 miles from central London.
What’s the nearest station to Stonecrouch?
The closest is Etchingham station, roughly 4.3 miles away.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Stonecrouch.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you cover Stonecrouch?
Yes, we do. Stonecrouch is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why book with us
- Something for staff to gather round
- Quick service from the hatch
- All the chip-shop extras
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

A closer look at the menu
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Give us break and shift times
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Ask staff to pre-order
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
- Numbers
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
