About our corporate fish and chip catering in Vauxhall
The van parks in the car park or yard, so nobody has to leave site. Typical bookings include open days and celebrating a big win, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
London work events in Vauxhall often run to a tight lunch break, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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 is crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Vauxhall
What about parking in Vauxhall?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Which station is closest to Vauxhall?
Vauxhall has its own station: Vauxhall station.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you serve each shift?
Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Ask facilities about access
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Give us break and shift times
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Vauxhall?
A meal out takes everyone off site. A van comes to you. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book our van in Vauxhall
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- Quick service from the hatch
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. After-work summer events in Vauxhall have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Where the van can park in Vauxhall
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
As a London location, Vauxhall is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
