How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Plashet
We keep the menu short so a lunch break is enough: fish, sausages, pies and chips, with the classic sides. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer staff parties and leaving dos.
In Plashet, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. 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 Plashet
Plashet is about 2 miles north-east of Plaistow, in Greater London. Staff events in Plashet are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day.

Within reach of Plashet are historic houses such as Valentines Mansion (2.2 miles north) and Eastbury Manor House (2.3 miles east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for vehicles.

How the day works
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Summer events after work in Plashet have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it’s about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Make sure the van can get in

Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Give us break and shift times
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Ask facilities about access
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
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 cooks in front of your staff instead.
Questions from Plashet
Could you trade in West Ham Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to Plashet?
Woodgrange Park station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Plashet.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Larger groups typically cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
