Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Connaught Village
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Popular choices include sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for friday lunch treats and leaving dos.
London work events in Connaught Village often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Planning the van’s spot
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. The main points are:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Connaught Village 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- The day of the week
- The number of meals
- Your choice of menu
- The length of service
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- A picture of the parking spot
Send us the date, the address or W1U postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

Connaught Village: your questions answered
Can the van park in Hyde Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Connaught Village?
The closest is London Paddington station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can the van come to our open day?
We do. Visitors love it.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is generally ideal.
Planning for dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Confirm allergies by email
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Perfect for your staff event in Connaught Village
People remember it.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Typical bookings include:
- Retirement send-offs
- End-of-project celebrations
- Lunch for site crews
- Customer days
Nearby historic houses include Handel Hendrix House (0.9 miles east) and Apsley House (1 mile south-east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for vehicles.
What to look for in a quote
- What the van needs: space, access, power
- How many hours the van serves
- Any minimum charge
- The deposit and payment dates
Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
