Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Harringay

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for a monthly Fish Friday and end-of-project celebrations.

London work events in Harringay frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

15 questions to ask before booking

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.

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.

What happens on the day

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your staff event in Harringay. For a staff lunch in Harringay, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a sandwich lunch, a chip van feels like a proper treat. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

FAQs for Harringay

What about parking in Harringay?

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

Could you trade in Chestnuts Park?

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

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather does not 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 we need to provide equipment?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

What the van needs

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

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

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
