How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Up Somborne
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. There is no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. Whether it’s end-of-project celebrations and staff thank-you lunches, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
Near Up Somborne, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Put allergy details in writing
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
After the last group, we pack up.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.
Where the van can park in Up Somborne
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark

- Flat, firm ground for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
