Corporate fish and chip catering in Creekmouth, fried fresh
Service is timed to your lunch break or shift pattern, so nobody misses out. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for lunch for site crews and fish Friday treats.
Around Creekmouth, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams generally need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Share the shift pattern
- Collect allergies in advance
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Some teams make it a regular treat.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
Creekmouth 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 will say what we think before booking.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
