Corporate fish and chip catering for Elm Park events
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Elm Park
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. There’s no room to book and no kitchen needed, and people still talk about it the following week. For summer team days and retirement and leaving lunches, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips and more.
London work events in Elm Park often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Tell us about site access and parking. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

A chip van compared with other options
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
Why book with us

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Lunchtime staff treats in Elm Park are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:50pm in December.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
