Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Adelphi

A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. We are often asked to cater customer days and team away days, with mushy peas, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

In Adelphi, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Tell us about site access and parking. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Corporate buffets are normally cold. A van serves hot food to order. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Why book our van in Adelphi

  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • A quote that spells everything out

For event organisers in Adelphi

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Put allergy details in writing

We can serve each shift in turn, as agreed in advance.

A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Adelphi questions

What about parking in Adelphi?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.

Can the van park in Victoria Embankment Gardens?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

How do you handle allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

What paperwork do you provide?

Sites vary, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.

Is there a non-fish option?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Normally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Adelphi?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we’ll send a quote.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Step by step

You do not need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. In Adelphi, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Before we arrive

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Where you’d like the van to go
