Corporate fish and chip catering for Oval events
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Oval
It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because fish and chips is food everyone knows. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for project milestones and thank-you lunches for the team.
Around Oval, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Workplace catering around Oval
Oval is about 1 mile north of Stockwell, in Greater London. Staff events in Oval are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. We take the van to 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Nearby historic houses include Buckingham Palace (1.7 miles north-west) and Clarence House (1.8 miles north-west). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for catering vans. With the A203 and A3204 nearby, access for the van is straightforward.
Wherever your staff event is in SW8, SW9 and SW1P, we can bring the van to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- We cover Oval and the whole of Greater London
- Hot food handed straight over
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Oval
What’s the nearest station to Oval?
Oval has its own station: Vauxhall station.
What about parking in Oval?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Tell us the shift and break times and we’ll plan service around them.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
As a London location, Oval is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
On the menu in Oval
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Staff lunches

Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- How long we serve

- Distance and any road charges

What we need to know

- A picture of the parking spot
