About OceanView Catering
A Swadlincote caterer with over 30 years of experience
OceanView Catering is run by Jo Evans from Swadlincote in South Derbyshire. We bring our fish and chip van, loaded fries and gourmet burgers to weddings, parties and corporate events within about 35 miles.
Our story
Built on Jo’s own experience
Jo’s mum was a chef, so her passion for food started early. She has worked in catering since the age of 14. Quality, a strong work ethic and a commitment to sourcing the finest ingredients led Jo to establish OceanView Catering, with its own state-of-the-art van that brings the kitchen straight to your guests.
Today that experience goes into every event we cater. We arrive at your venue ready to cook, then serve your guests hot, freshly cooked food.
We focus on private events booked in advance, where you are providing food for your guests and know your numbers. That way we can plan the menu and the timings around your day.

The ladies turned up in their chip van which was wonderfully clean – the ladies were very friendly and super organised.
