Corporate fish and chip catering in Hadley, fried fresh

We work with your facilities team on access and parking, and we will confirm what we can provide for your site’s paperwork. For friday lunch treats and warehouse, depot and site teams, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas and more.

London work events in Hadley often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Have a back-up for special diets

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

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

Who books corporate fish and chip catering in Hadley?

Companies book a chip van because it’s a treat that suits everyone.

The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:

  • Charity days

  • Open days and customer events

Within reach of Hadley are historic houses such as Wyllyotts Manor (2.8 miles north). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.

Common questions in Hadley

Is parking a problem for the van in Hadley?

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

Could you trade in King George's Fields (Monken Hadley)?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Can you cater for allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Do you cover Hadley?

We do. Hadley is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Where will the van go on our site?

Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Planning a team lunch in Hadley

Hadley is about 1 mile north-west of Barnet, in Greater London. Hadley is well within our area, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Hadley is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 12 miles away.

Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: the closest railway station is New Barnet station, roughly 1.3 miles south-east of the centre. By road, Hadley is on or near the A1081, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van.

We cover staff events in every part of EN5 and EN4. Your staff event could be at a house on Byng Road, Park Road and Dury Road, as long as there is somewhere for the van.

A chip van compared with other options

A meal out takes everyone off site. The van brings lunch to the team. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.

Why book our van in Hadley

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • We cover Hadley and the whole of Greater London
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch

Take a look at our pricing or the cost guide.

What a fish and chip van costs

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Parking and the way in
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How many people are eating

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Details that help

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Expected numbers
  • A photo of the space and the way in

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

For event organisers in Hadley

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Food your guests will love

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

How the day works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. For a staff lunch in Hadley, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  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.

Getting ready for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
