Corporate fish and chip catering in South Wimbledon, cooked to order
Whether it is a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, the van makes the day feel special. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater staff appreciation days and project milestones.
For offices in and around South Wimbledon, the van usually parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

South Wimbledon: your questions answered
Which station is closest to South Wimbledon?
Wimbledon station, in South Wimbledon itself.
What about parking in South Wimbledon?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes. Visitors love it.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The day of the week
- How far we travel
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Expected numbers
- Dietary needs, with numbers
To get a price, use our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in South Wimbledon, and we will check the date and send a price.
What the van needs
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
As a London location, South Wimbledon is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
From the hatch
- Staff lunches
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Summer events after work in South Wimbledon 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.
- Send us the date, site, headcount and 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.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Clear the route for the van
How to get a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

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.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. 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.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Collect allergies in advance
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
