Corporate fish and chip catering in Bermondsey, cooked to order

A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: the classics, done properly. Typical bookings include retirement and leaving lunches and summer team days, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

In Bermondsey, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A short walk from the party
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Access wide and high enough for the van

As a London location, Bermondsey is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we serve

  • Pie and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Staff lunches
  • Sausage and chips

Planning for dietary needs

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

A chip van compared with other options

Corporate buffets are typically cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Why Bermondsey hosts choose us

  • No surprises in your quote
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

What a fish and chip van costs

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How far we travel
  • Your choice of menu
  • The date and time of year
  • Service time

Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

Details that help

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Roughly how many people, including children

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.

Working with your venue

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

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Step by step

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. For an end-of-day event in Bermondsey, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Ask for a quote

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. Just use our quote form.
