Corporate fish and chip catering in Acton Vale, cooked to order
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. Whether it is customer days and retirement and leaving lunches, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
For offices in and around Acton Vale, the van usually parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Facilities teams typically need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask facilities about access
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we are ready when the first group comes out.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Any minimum charge
- The number of meals
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Your date and serving time

Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
As a London location, Acton Vale is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
