Planning the van’s spot

Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A spot near your staff
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

As a London location, Limehouse is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we serve

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

Planning a team lunch in Limehouse

Limehouse is about 2 miles east of Whitechapel, in Greater London. People in Limehouse book us for all sorts of reasons, but it always starts the same way: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. Limehouse is one of 764 places in Greater London where we bring the van.

By road, Limehouse is on or near the A126, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van. Historic houses near Limehouse include Sutton House (2.4 miles north) and Mansion House (2.5 miles west). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for vehicles.

Anywhere in E14, E3 and E1, we can bring the van to you. Local streets include Oak Lane, Bale Road and Wharf Lane; a staff event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Limehouse is on the A126, which makes the journey straightforward. We also bring the van to staff events in Bow Common (1 mile east), Mile End (1 mile north), Ratcliff (1 mile south-west), Stepney (1 mile west) and Shadwell (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (3 miles south-west), City of Westminster (5 miles west), Marylebone (5 miles west), Kensington (7 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles west) and Walthamstow (5 miles north).

Nearby you’ll also find Holy Trinity (0.9 miles north-west) and Museum of the Book (within half a mile south-west). Open spaces near Limehouse include St. James's Park Lake and Tower Hill.

  • Nearby schools include St Paul's Way Trust School (within half a mile north-east) and Stepney Green Mathematics and Computing College (0.5 miles west)
  • Pubs nearby include Star Of The East Public House (less than half a mile south-east)

DIY versus a fish and chip 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.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planning for dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Give us break and shift times
  • Find out what documents the site needs
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities

We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we are ready when the first group comes out.

Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.

How the day works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. After-work summer events in Limehouse 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. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

How to compare vans

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.

Why Limehouse hosts choose us

  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
