About our corporate fish and chip catering in Clare Market
Facilities can deal with us directly, and we will go through what your site needs from us. For workplace fundraising days and staff appreciation days, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips for your guests.
For offices in and around Clare Market, the van normally parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

What a fish and chip van costs
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
- Whether a minimum applies
- Numbers
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
- Dietary needs, with numbers
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we’ll check the date and send a price.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Share the shift pattern
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
Step by step
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. A lunch-break van visit in Clare Market is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
Clare Market is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Clare Market: your questions answered
What about parking in Clare Market?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to Clare Market?
The closest is London Charing Cross station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you have documents for our site?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll go through it with you.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
For event organisers in Clare Market
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
