Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Holloway Down
Open days and customer events work well too: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. We’re often asked to cater warehouse, depot and site teams and end-of-project celebrations, with mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
Around Holloway Down, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams generally 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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Holloway Down
What’s the nearest station to Holloway Down?
The closest is Maryland station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can the van park in West Ham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll go through it with you.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The date and time of year
- Distance and any road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
- How easy the site is to reach
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the parking spot
- The spot you have in mind for the van
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.
How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. In Holloway Down, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or E11 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
