Corporate fish and chip catering in Collier Row, fried fresh
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Whether it is retirement send-offs and charity days, we’ll put together a menu of mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips and more.
Around Collier Row, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams generally need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do before you book.

About the food
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Send round an allergy question
- Put allergy details in writing
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Let us know about coeliac disease
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, 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.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
Why us?
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Something for staff to gather round

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
How the day works
You do not need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. After-work summer events in Collier Row have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.

Collier Row: your questions answered
Is parking a problem for the van in Collier Row?
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 Collier Row?
Romford station, about 1.3 miles south of the centre.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes. Visitors love it.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The length of service
- How many people are eating
- Parking and the way in
- Cod, haddock or both
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
