About the food
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
How our corporate fish and chip catering works in Redbridge
A short menu keeps the queue moving through a lunch break: the classics, done properly. Popular choices include sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for end-of-project celebrations and warehouse, depot and site teams.
For farms and rural sites near Redbridge, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

How the day works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your staff event. Lunchtime bookings in Redbridge are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Ask facilities about access
- Give us break and shift times
- Send round an allergy question
- Let us know about coeliac disease
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.

Redbridge: your questions answered
Could you trade in St James' Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Redbridge?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Can you invoice the company?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
These are the factors that matter most:
- The date and time of year
- The menu and how many choices
- How long we serve
- The number of meals
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
