Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Kensal Green

We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. For thank-you lunches for the team and workplace fundraising days, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips and more.

Around Kensal Green, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams normally need to approve the van, and access needs planning. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. Lunchtime staff treats in Kensal Green are in daylight all year round, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  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

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

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 get it right:

  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Let us know about coeliac disease

Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

15 questions to ask before you book

What the van needs

Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

Kensal Green 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.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Staff lunches
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Kensal Green: your questions answered

Could you trade in Little Wormwood Scrubs?

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

What about parking in Kensal Green?

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

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we’ll explain the options before you book.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

What does it cost to hire the van?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can the van come to our open day?

Yes, it’s a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Service time
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Parking and the way in
  • Numbers

Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.

What to tell us

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

To get a price, fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we’ll check the date and send a price.

Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
