How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Clapton
It works for customer events and open days as well: people gather at the van and linger. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for warehouse, depot and site teams and fish Friday treats.
Around Clapton, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. The main points are:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Clapton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The length of service
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How far we travel
- Parking and the way in
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The date and time of the event

Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Ask facilities about access
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
The process
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. In Clapton, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
