Corporate fish and chip catering in Crooked Billet, cooked to order

Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for workplace fundraising days and retirement and leaving lunches.

Around Crooked Billet, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.

Working with your venue

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Step by step

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. After-work summer events in Crooked Billet have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Preparing for the day

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

Planning for dietary needs

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form

We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we are ready when the first group comes out.

Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Service time
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Cod, haddock or both

Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and time of the event

FAQs for Crooked Billet

What about parking in Crooked Billet?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Which station is closest to Crooked Billet?

Raynes Park station, about 0.9 miles south of the centre.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

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.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Pie and chips
