Fresh fish and chips in Southwark

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Put allergy details in writing

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Southwark, cooked to order

It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Whether it’s charity and fundraising days at work and project milestones, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, pie and chips and haddock and chips.

In Southwark, lunch breaks are often short, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

About the food

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Southwark questions

What’s the nearest station to Southwark?

The closest is Elephant & Castle station, roughly 0.5 miles away.

Is parking a problem for the van in Southwark?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes. Visitors love it.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

How does payment work for businesses?

Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Any minimum charge
  • How far we travel
  • Service time
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • The address or venue name
  • Your date and serving time
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • A photo of the space and the way in

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.

How it works

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Summer events after work in Southwark have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Getting a price

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.

15 questions to ask before booking

Takeaway run or book a van?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

For a thank-you that lands, a chip van is hard to beat. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

What you get with us

  • Events in Southwark and across Greater London
  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

Take a look at how we price or our guide to van hire costs.

Space, access and the venue

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

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

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
