Corporate fish and chip catering in Wapping, cooked to order
Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We’re frequently asked to cater team away days and a monthly Fish Friday, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
London work events in Wapping frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we keep the menu short and service quick. Let us know about access and security. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Consider a pre-order list
- Share the shift pattern
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

What about parking in Wapping?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Wapping.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.

Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
Wapping is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
