Corporate fish and chip catering in Upper Denford, cooked to order

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. Popular choices include pie and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for team away days and retirement and leaving lunches.

At country workplaces around Upper Denford, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Service time
  • The number of meals
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Whether a minimum applies

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Details that help

The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Where the van would park
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will check availability straight away.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A short walk from the party

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Popular choices

  • Staff lunches
  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips

For event organisers in Upper Denford

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

The process

Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. For an end-of-day event in Upper Denford, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it’s about 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Hungerford station, about 1.4 miles south-west of the centre.

Do you bring everything you need?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

What paperwork do you provide?

Send us your site’s list, and we will confirm what we can provide.

How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Upper Denford?

We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.

Can you serve each shift?

Tell us the shift and break times and we will plan service around them.

What can staff choose from?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
