Corporate fish and chip catering in Wierton, fried fresh
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Whether it is leaving dos and open days and customer events, we’ll put together a menu of mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips and more.
Rural businesses around Wierton can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
The process
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. For an end-of-day event in Wierton, summer gives you light until about 9:15pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- 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.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

Common questions in Wierton
How far is Wierton from London?
About 34 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Wierton?
The closest is Staplehurst station, roughly 3.3 miles away.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
What can staff choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Occasions we serve in Wierton
It does not need a meeting room, a kitchen or a restaurant booking, so it’s simple to arrange.
A fish and chip van suits almost any gathering. In Wierton, people book us for events such as:
- Summer team days
- Leaving dos
- Open days and customer events

Wierton sits roughly 34 miles from central London.
Questions to ask before you book
- The van’s size and access needs
- How allergens are handled
- Whether there is a minimum
- The service time, and the cost of running over
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
