What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
For event organisers in Lord's Wood
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Lord's Wood: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Lord's Wood?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Lord's Wood close to London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Do you have documents for our site?
Send us your site’s list, and we will go through it with you.
Do you come to Lord's Wood?
Yes, we do. Lord's Wood is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Share the shift pattern
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
What affects the price in Lord's Wood
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The date and time of year
- Any minimum charge
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of the space and the way in
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.
How the day works
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. We handle the cooking and serving. Summer events after work in Lord's Wood have light until about 9:25pm; in late May it’s about 8:55pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Ensure the van can get in
- Tell us when you want to eat
How to get a price
