Corporate fish and chip catering in St Helier
About our corporate fish and chip catering in St Helier
It works for customer events and open days as well: visitors queue, chat and stay longer. Popular choices include mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater customer days and celebrating a big win.
For offices in and around St Helier, the van typically parks in a car park, yard or loading bay, if the building allows it. Facilities teams normally need to approve the van, and access needs planning. Everything is fried fresh at your staff event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Where the van can park in St Helier
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
As a London location, St Helier is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.

The closest is Sutton Common station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Is parking a problem for the van in St Helier?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
