Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Thrupp
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. We’re often asked to cater project milestones and warehouse, depot and site teams, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Thrupp, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

- Share the shift pattern
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Flag any coeliac staff
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
