Fresh fish and chips in Toothill
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Toothill
It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because fish and chips is food everyone knows. On the menu are haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for team away days and open days.
At country workplaces around Toothill, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Service time
- The minimum booking
The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Comparing caterers
- What happens if plans change
- How many hours the van serves
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Send round an allergy question
- Give us break and shift times
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
Send a message round when the van opens.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Lunchtime bookings in Toothill are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
