Corporate fish and chip catering in Aldwych, fried fresh
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Typical bookings include charity days and a monthly Fish Friday, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
For offices in and around Aldwych, the van normally parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- The menu and how many choices
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges
Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Where you’d like the van to go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Questions from Aldwych
Could you trade in Lincoln's Inn Fields?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What about parking in Aldwych?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Where will the van go on our site?
Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards normally work well.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We will plan it with you.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Aldwych.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
Space, access and the venue
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Aldwych is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
From the hatch
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Staff lunches
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Sausage and chips
A chip van compared with other options
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
What you get with us
- A quote that spells everything out
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Classic food your staff already know

Other occasions in Aldwych
What happens on the day
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. For a staff lunch in Aldwych, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us your final numbers and allergies

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A closer look at the menu
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
