Corporate fish and chip catering in Friday Hill, cooked to order

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, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater workplace fundraising days and summer staff parties.

Around Friday Hill, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.

What you get with us

  • Bookings across Greater London, including Friday Hill
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Classic food your staff already know

15 questions to ask before booking

For event organisers in Friday Hill

Organising a club, school or community event in Friday Hill? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Space, access and the venue

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • A short walk from the party
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

As a London location, Friday Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

On the menu in Friday Hill

Friday Hill: your questions answered

What’s the nearest station to Friday Hill?

Chingford station, about 0.8 miles north of the centre.

Is parking a problem for the van in Friday Hill?

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

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

Is there a non-fish option?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Can we pay by invoice?

We’ll talk you through booking and payment for businesses.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Flag any coeliac staff

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

How it works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Summer events after work in Friday Hill have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm.

  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.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
