Corporate fish and chip catering for Manor Park events

Space, access and the venue

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A spot near your staff

As a London location, Manor Park 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.

From the hatch

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

About our corporate fish and chip catering in Manor Park

A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, the van makes the day feel special. We’re frequently asked to cater workplace fundraising days and leaving dos, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.

In Manor Park, lunch breaks are frequently short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. 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.

Step by step

The first sign we’ve arrived is normally the smell, about the time the first staff wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. For an end-of-day event in Manor Park, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm.

  1. First, tell us about your staff event.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • The day of the week
  • How many people are eating
  • Any minimum charge
  • The menu and how many choices

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

  • Expected numbers
  • Your date and serving time
  • The venue or postcode
  • A photo of the parking spot

Choosing a fish and chip van

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.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Planners, venues and businesses

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Share the shift pattern
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies

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

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
