Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Willington
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for retirement send-offs and summer team days.
Around Willington, teams work at farms, workshops and units. The van works at any of them. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
The process
We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Lunchtime staff treats in Willington are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:00pm in late September.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
