About our corporate fish and chip catering in Nine Elms
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. We are frequently asked to cater charity days and celebrating a big win, with cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
For offices in and around Nine Elms, the van usually parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

FAQs for Nine Elms
Could you trade in Pimlico Gardens?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What about parking in Nine Elms?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we’ll explain the options.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Nine Elms.

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
For event organisers in Nine Elms
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
