Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

What you get with us

  • Hot food handed straight over
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • Classic food your staff already know
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

From the hatch

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

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Waldron

How far is Waldron from London?

About 40 miles from central London.

Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

What can staff choose from?

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Can we pay by invoice?

We’ll talk you through booking and payment.

What do we need to supply?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.

Do you have documents for our site?

Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

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

How it works

You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Lunchtime staff treats in Waldron are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

How to get a price

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Planning help

Should I sort the food myself?

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 normally simpler.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is 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 is crisp.

  • 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
