How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Hanwell
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. For lunch for site crews and leaving dos, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips for your guests.
Around Hanwell, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams normally need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Common questions in Hanwell
What’s the nearest station to Hanwell?
Hanwell has its own station: Hanwell station.
Can the van park in Drayton Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
Can you come onto our site?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is normally ideal.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of meals
- The day of the week
- The minimum booking
- How long we serve
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the van would park
- Where the event is
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Staff generally gather round the hatch once service starts. Lunchtime bookings in Hanwell are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Ensure the van can get in
