Planning an event in Summerstown?

How it works

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your staff event in Summerstown. After-work summer events in Summerstown have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your staff.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Preparing for the day

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Corporate fish and chip catering in Summerstown, cooked to order

Whether it’s a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, the van makes the day feel special. We are frequently asked to cater customer days and summer staff parties, with pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

Around Summerstown, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and loading bays. Facilities teams usually need to approve the van, and access needs planning. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

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

With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, everyone gets a break. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Why us?

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • A clear quote before booking
  • Bookings across Greater London, including Summerstown

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

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

Put bins near the hatch.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

For planners, venues and organisers

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Why choose corporate fish and chip catering in Summerstown?

It doesn’t need a meeting room, a kitchen or a restaurant booking, so it’s easy to organise.

Whatever the occasion in Summerstown, fish and chips from the hatch goes down well. We regularly serve:

  • Customer days
  • Team away days
  • End-of-project celebrations
  • Warehouse, depot and site teams

Within reach of Summerstown are historic houses such as Southside House (2.4 miles south-west) and Fulham Palace (2.8 miles north-west). Historic venues suit client days, but check their vehicle rules before planning a van.

15 questions to ask before you book

Summerstown: your questions answered

Which station is closest to Summerstown?

Earlsfield station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.

Can the van park in King George's Park?

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

Is the fish gluten-free?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Can you invoice the company?

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

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Do you do customer events and open days?

Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Access and parking
  • The day of the week
  • How far we travel
  • Cod, haddock or both

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

Getting an accurate quote

To check availability and price, we need:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and time of the event

It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

Planning the van’s spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

As a London location, Summerstown is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

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