Organising for someone else?
Organising a club, school or community event in Fulmer? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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 generally simpler.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
How it works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your shoot. On a winter shoot near Fulmer, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- 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
- Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
- Let us know the serving time
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
