For planners, venues and organisers

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.

Organising a club, school or community event in Barnehurst? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

About our corporate fish and chip catering in Barnehurst

We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. Popular choices include mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and end-of-project celebrations.

In Barnehurst, lunch breaks are frequently short, so we plan service to feed people fast. Tell us about site access and parking. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • The number of meals
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Service time
  • Cod, haddock or both

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.

Details that help

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Where the event is
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

Still finalising the details? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.

How it works

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and get on with frying and serving. For an end-of-day event in Barnehurst, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will 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. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  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

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Ask for a quote

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Perfect for your staff event in Barnehurst

It does not need a meeting room, a kitchen or a restaurant booking, so it is simple to arrange.

The van suits big events and small ones. Common bookings include:

  • Open days and customer events
  • A monthly Fish Friday
  • End-of-project celebrations
  • Summer staff parties

Nearby historic houses include Hall Place and Gardens (1 mile south-west) and Red House (1.7 miles west). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.

Before you book anyone

  • What they can offer for dietary needs
  • What the price includes, item by item
  • How late numbers can change
  • The service time, and the cost of running over

Our booking checklist

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Barnehurst

Is parking a problem for the van in Barnehurst?

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 Barnehurst?

Barnehurst station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.

Can we pay by invoice?

Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.

How long will the queue be?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

Do you take everything away?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

What can staff choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Looking after everyone

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Have a back-up for special diets

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

Barnehurst is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
