Fresh fish and chips in Lewisham

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • Any minimum charge
  • Distance and any road charges
  • How many people are eating
  • The day of the week

The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Details that help

The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Expected numbers
  • Your date and serving time
  • Anything awkward about the way in

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Lewisham, cooked to order

Open days and customer events work well too: people gather at the van and linger. Whether it’s thank-you lunches for the team and open days, we can cook pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.

For offices in and around Lewisham, the van generally parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. 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.

Planning the van’s spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

As a London location, Lewisham 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we serve

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

Food your guests will love

Cod and chips

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

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Questions from Lewisham

Which station is closest to Lewisham?

Lewisham has its own station: Lewisham station.

Can the van park in Ladywell Fields?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

What can staff choose from?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Do we need to provide equipment?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes. Visitors love it.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

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.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Collect allergies in advance

When service is finished, we pack up.

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

How to compare vans

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lewisham?

Why book with us

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

  • No surprises in your quote

The process

The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. After-work summer events in Lewisham have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
