About our corporate fish and chip catering in Vernham Street
The van parks in the car park or yard, so staff don’t have to go anywhere. Popular choices include sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for retirement and leaving lunches and summer staff parties.
Near Vernham Street, workplaces can be far from shops, so a chip van lunch is welcome. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Common questions in Vernham Street
Is Vernham Street too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Vernham Street close to London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
Is grass a problem?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What will facilities need from you?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you come onto our site?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is usually ideal.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. 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. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Compared with a sandwich platter, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
