About our corporate fish and chip catering in West Green
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We’re frequently asked to cater warehouse, depot and site teams and charity days, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
For businesses around West Green, a staff lunch in the yard is easy to arrange. Let us know about the site. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
About the food
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The number of meals
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- Whether a minimum applies
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Anything awkward about the way in

- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
