Fresh fish and chips in St Pancras

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in St Pancras

Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and it gets people talking. Typical bookings include a monthly Fish Friday and customer days, with mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips.

Around St Pancras, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Get facilities’ approval and plan access early. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

What happens on the day

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. Lunchtime bookings in St Pancras are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

Why choose a fish and chip van in St Pancras?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Why book with us

  • Bookings across Greater London, including St Pancras
  • Something for staff to gather round
  • Classic food your staff already know
  • Rain does not stop the fryers

Take a look at our pricing and what a fish and chip van costs.

Before you choose a spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

As a London location, St Pancras is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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 before you book.

  • Mushy peas
  • Staff lunches
  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips

Common questions in St Pancras

Which station is closest to St Pancras?

London Kings Cross station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.

Could you trade in Lincoln's Inn Fields?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.

Do you fry it on site?

It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

What paperwork do you provide?

Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.

Do you serve visitors at events?

Yes, it is a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.

Can you park on the road outside?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What can staff choose from?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Do you work around shifts?

Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Confirm allergies by email

Put bins near the hatch.

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
