About our corporate fish and chip catering in Barkingside
Facilities can deal with us directly, and we’ll confirm what we can provide for your site’s paperwork. Whether it’s project milestones and shift teams at depots and warehouses, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
For offices in and around Barkingside, the van normally parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. A lunch-break van visit in Barkingside is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a sandwich lunch, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Why book with us
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Events in Barkingside and across Greater London
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
Take a look at our pricing and our guide to van hire costs.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How far we travel
- How long we serve
- Whether a minimum applies
- Access and parking
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the event is
- A picture of the space and the way in
Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Barkingside: your questions answered
Is parking a problem for the van in Barkingside?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to Barkingside?
Seven Kings station, about 1.6 miles south of the centre.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
