Fresh fish and chips in Kensal Rise
Corporate fish and chip catering in Kensal Rise, cooked to order
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: the classics, done properly. We are frequently asked to cater customer days and charity days, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
London work events in Kensal Rise often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Tell us about site access and parking. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
Why us?
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No kitchen needed
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

Kensal Rise questions
What’s the nearest station to Kensal Rise?
Kensal Rise station, in Kensal Rise itself.
Is parking a problem for the van in Kensal Rise?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you invoice the company?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.
Do you work around shifts?
Tell us the shift and break times and we will plan service around them.
Do you cover Kensal Rise?
We do. We serve events in Kensal Rise and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. After-work summer events in Kensal Rise have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Planning help
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Parking and the way in
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The address or venue name
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Send us the date, the address or W10 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Confirm allergies by email
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Have a back-up for special diets
Send a message round when the van opens.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
