About our corporate fish and chip catering in Pimlico

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. We are frequently asked to cater team away days and open days, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

London work events in Pimlico frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Tell us about site access and parking. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Workplace catering around Pimlico

Pimlico is about 1 mile east of Brompton, in Greater London. Anywhere in SW1P, we can fry fresh for your staff. Pimlico is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.

By road, Pimlico is on or near the A202 and A3212, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van. Within reach of Pimlico are historic houses such as Buckingham Palace (0.9 miles north) and Clarence House (1.1 miles north). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for vehicles.

Wherever your staff event is in SW1P, SW1V and SW1W, we can fry fresh for your staff, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We can serve a staff event on streets such as Ponton Road, Wilton Road and Ebury Square or the roads around them, wherever the van can park. Being close to the A202 and A3212, Pimlico is simple for us to get to with the van. If your venue is just outside Pimlico, we also cover Victoria (1 mile north-west), Nine Elms (1 mile south-west), Westminster (1 mile north), Millbank (1 mile north) and Vauxhall (1 mile east). We also serve nearby towns such as Kensington (3 miles west), St Pancras (3 miles north), Shoreditch (4 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (4 miles north-east).

Other landmarks nearby include Health Exhibition Centre (0.5 miles north-west) and Westminster St Margaret and St John (0.8 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Bellenden Road Nature Garden and Ludgate Hill.

  • Local schools include Pimlico Academy (within half a mile south-east) and Grosvenor School of Modern Art (within half a mile north-west)

  • Other local spots include Lambeth Palace Library (1.1 miles north-east)

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.

What affects the price in Pimlico

There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • The number of meals
  • The length of service
  • How far we travel
  • Your choice of menu

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Details that help

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The venue or postcode
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Allergies and diets you know about

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Step by step

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. Lunchtime bookings in Pimlico are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
