Corporate fish and chip catering in Woodside, 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. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for retirement and leaving lunches and customer days.
Near Woodside, workplaces can be far from shops, 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.

- A picture of the parking spot
- Where the van would park
- Rough numbers for adults and children
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we’ll check the date and send a price.
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book our van in Woodside
- Quick service from the hatch
- No kitchen needed
- Something for staff to gather round
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Share the shift pattern
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Check with facilities where the van can park
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. In Woodside, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
