Corporate fish and chip catering in Wolverton, cooked to order
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. Popular choices include cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips, and we are frequently booked for charity days and thank-you lunches for the team.
Near Wolverton, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Wolverton: your questions answered
How far is Wolverton from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Wolverton?
The closest is Thatcham station, roughly 5 miles away.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Can you serve each shift?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Wolverton?
There is nothing to book but the van, so it’s easy to organise.
Whatever brings people together, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We’re often booked for:
- Shift teams at depots and warehouses
- Charity days
- Open days
- Staff thank-you lunches
Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: the nearest station is Thatcham station, about 5 miles north.
What to look for in a quote
- VAT, if it applies
- The cancellation terms
- The van’s size and access needs
- Any travel, parking or access charges
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Corporate buffets are generally cold. A van serves hot food to order. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- No surprises in your quote
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- Classic food your staff already know
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Collect allergies in advance
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

Planners, venues and businesses
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
How the day works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your staff event. For a staff lunch in Wolverton, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
