About our corporate fish and chip catering in Clapham
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. For end-of-project celebrations and lunch for site crews, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Near Clapham, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Clapham?
Corporate buffets are normally cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What you get with us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- A van that becomes part of the event
- A menu almost everyone likes
- No surprises in your quote

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
