Planning the van’s spot

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

South Harrow is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Corporate fish and chip catering in South Harrow, cooked to order

Food is fried to order, so it is hot whether you are first or last in the queue. Popular choices include haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for charity and fundraising days at work and summer team days.

Around South Harrow, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Takeaway run or book a van?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
  • Share the shift pattern
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Let us know about coeliac disease

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Corporate buffets are typically cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

What happens on the day

Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Lunchtime staff treats in South Harrow are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:05pm in late September.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
