DIY versus a fish and chip van

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

East Claydon questions

Is East Claydon close to London?

Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like East Claydon?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do we need to provide equipment?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Can you come onto our site?

That is up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.

Is the food cooked at the event?

It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Find out what documents the site needs

When service is finished, we pack up.

Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.

  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
