A chip van near Stoughton
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Stoughton
It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. For charity days and customer days, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
Around Stoughton, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A chip van suits all of them. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Planning for 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 get it right:
- Send round an allergy question
- Consider a pre-order list
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

What’s the nearest station to Stoughton?

Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
