Allergies and dietary needs

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

  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.

A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Goodmayes

A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. For charity days and staff thank-you lunches, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips and more.

In Goodmayes, lunch breaks are frequently short, so we plan service to feed people fast. Tell us about site access and parking. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Choosing a fish and chip van

How the day works

You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first staff wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Lunchtime staff treats in Goodmayes are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Give us a contact for the day
