Corporate fish and chip catering in Kenley

Corporate fish and chip catering in Kenley, fried fresh

Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. For leaving dos and open days and customer events, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips for your guests.

Around Kenley, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Questions from Kenley

What’s the nearest station to Kenley?

Kenley has its own station: Kenley station.

Is parking a problem for the van in Kenley?

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

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

Can you park in our car park or yard?

Typically, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.

Where can the van park?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Kenley?

It gets people out of their usual groups and talking.

Almost any gathering works with a fish and chip van. In Kenley, people book us for events such as:

  • Project milestones

How to compare vans

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. In Kenley, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Share the timings for the day

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Kenley? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

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

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
