Planning an event in Lessness Heath?

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Lessness Heath, fried fresh

Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, the van makes the day feel special. We’re frequently asked to cater retirement and leaving lunches and warehouse, depot and site teams, with pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

London work events in Lessness Heath frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

The process

When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your staff event. For a staff lunch in Lessness Heath, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. First, tell us about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Getting ready for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

How to compare vans

Food your guests will love

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Lessness Heath: your questions answered

Which station is closest to Lessness Heath?

Belvedere station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.

Is parking a problem for the van in Lessness Heath?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How much space do you need?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

How does payment work for businesses?

We’ll explain how it works when we quote for businesses.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Give us break and shift times
  • Find out what documents the site needs
  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities
  • Consider a pre-order list

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.

A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
