About our corporate fish and chip catering in Stubb's Cross
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. Typical bookings include open days and customer events and leaving dos, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
Near Stubb's Cross, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
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.

- Rough numbers for adults and children

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a sandwich platter, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
