Corporate fish and chip catering in Holborn
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Holborn
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Typical bookings include shift teams at depots and warehouses and workplace fundraising days, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
For offices in and around Holborn, the van generally parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Facilities teams typically need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Send round an allergy question
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Find out what documents the site needs
After the last group, we pack up.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.

Common questions in Holborn
What’s the nearest station to Holborn?
Holborn has its own station: Farringdon station.
Could you trade in Lincoln's Inn Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
How does payment work for businesses?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
Where the van can park in Holborn
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A short walk from the party
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
Holborn is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How long we serve

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Working with your venue
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
