Staff lunches in Paddington: access and travel
Paddington is about 1 mile west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Give us the address of your staff event in Paddington, and we will plan access and set-up. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
For colleagues arriving by train, London Paddington station is in Paddington itself. The A5 and A40 put Paddington within easy reach for the van.
We take the van to staff events all over the W2, W1H and W1U postcode area. Whether your staff event is on Harrow Road, Craven Road and Harbet Road or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. You’ll find Paddington on the A5 and A40, so it’s easy for us to reach with the van. Nearby, we also serve staff events in Paddington Green (1 mile north-west), Hyde Park Estate (1 mile south-east), Connaught Village (1 mile south-east), Tyburn (1 mile south-east) and Little Venice (1 mile north-west).

Corporate fish and chip catering in Paddington, cooked to order
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We are often asked to cater end-of-project celebrations and warehouse, depot and site teams, serving cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
London work events in Paddington often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Paddington? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A clear area by the serving hatch
As a London location, Paddington 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 will say what we think.
On the menu in Paddington
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Common questions in Paddington
Could you trade in Royal Parks of London?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Paddington?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Do you cover Paddington?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Paddington and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you come onto our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is normally ideal.
Do you work around shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. After-work summer events in Paddington have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
