Corporate fish and chip catering for Westmarsh events
Corporate fish and chip catering in Westmarsh, cooked to order
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: the classics, done properly. We’re frequently asked to cater thank-you lunches for the team and project milestones, serving haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Westmarsh, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.
The process
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace. A lunch-break van visit in Westmarsh is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Have a level parking spot ready

Planning a team lunch in Westmarsh
Westmarsh is about 7 miles west of Ramsgate, in Kent. We cover Westmarsh as standard, so your staff event just needs a date, a spot for the van and a serving time. We take the van to all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Westmarsh to Canterbury (about 8 miles away).
Westmarsh sits roughly 60 miles from central London, well within our area. Among the historic houses close to Westmarsh are Goodnestone Park (4.6 miles south-west) and Quex Park (4.8 miles north-east). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.
Wherever your staff event is in CT3, we can fry fresh for your staff, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Neighbouring places where we serve staff events include Ware (1 mile south), East Stourmouth (1 mile north-west), West Stourmouth (2 miles north-west), Preston (2 miles west) and Monkton (2 miles north). We also serve nearby towns such as Canterbury (8 miles west), Margate (7 miles north-east), Dover (12 miles south), Ramsgate (7 miles east), Broadstairs (8 miles north-east) and Whitstable (11 miles west).
A little further out are White Mill (3 miles south-east). Within reach you’ll find Monk's Wall nature reserve.
- Local pubs include The Way Out Inn (less than half a mile north-west)
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Your choice of menu
- How many people are eating
- Service time
- The date and time of year
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
To get a price, use our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.
Working with your venue
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Share the shift pattern
- Put allergy details in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.

Westmarsh: your questions answered
Is Westmarsh too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Westmarsh close to London?
Roughly 60 miles from the centre of London.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
What paperwork do you provide?
Sites vary, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Is grass a problem?
Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
