About our corporate fish and chip catering in West Wellow
It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because fish and chips is food everyone knows. Whether it is charity and fundraising days at work and friday lunch treats, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips and more.
Near West Wellow, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The date and time of year
- The minimum booking
- How long we serve
- Parking and the way in
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where you’d like the van to go
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Share the shift pattern
- Ask facilities about access
- Collect allergies in advance
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
Why us?

- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Name one person we can call on the day

Can you come onto our site?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A short walk from the party
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
What we serve
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
- 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
