Who books corporate fish and chip catering in Ladywell?

  • How late numbers can change

15 questions to ask before booking

Organising for someone else?

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Share the shift pattern

Put bins near the hatch.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

Before you choose a spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A short walk from the party
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

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

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

On the menu in Ladywell

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How many people are eating
  • The menu and how many choices
  • The length of service

Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Where the van would park
  • Anything awkward about the way in

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Ladywell

What’s the nearest station to Ladywell?

Ladywell station, in Ladywell itself.

Can the van park in Ladywell Fields?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first.

How far ahead should we book?

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

Is there a non-fish option?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Who clears up?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Do you cover Ladywell?

We do. We serve events in Ladywell and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. After-work summer events in Ladywell 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.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
