How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Hangleton

Everything is cooked as people come up, so it’s hot whether you are first or last in the queue. Whether it’s friday lunch treats and team away days, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

Near Hangleton, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Common questions in Hangleton

How far is Hangleton from London?

Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Could you trade in Clapham Wood?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.

Can the van come to our open day?

We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.

What do you bring?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

How long will the queue be?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Space, access and the venue

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • A short walk from the party
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

What we serve

  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Staff lunches

Choosing a fish and chip van

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • Service time
  • The minimum booking
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Send round an allergy question
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Put allergy details in writing

Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

What happens on the day

On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. For an end-of-day event in Hangleton, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

How to get a price

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
