For event organisers in Welborne
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Welborne
The van parks in the car park or yard, so nobody has to leave site. We serve sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for shift teams at depots and warehouses and summer staff parties.
For farms and rural sites near Welborne, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Planning for dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Put allergy details in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. After-work summer events in Welborne have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Ask for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
