Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in South Norwood
It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. For open days and customer events and project milestones, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips and more.
In South Norwood, lunch breaks are often short, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Where the van can park in South Norwood
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Confirmation that the van can park there
South Norwood is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
