Common Questions

Please find below a list of Common Questions when booking for your Corporate Event with The Hungry Plaice
  • How do I reserve my date for a Corporate Event?

    When you contact us we will check if your date and time is available. 


    We will then send you an invoice with our Terms and Conditions and this will give you all the information you need to know about your booking.


    The Invoice Payment will be due ahead of the Event date.

  • How do we pay for a Corporate Event Booking?

    Payments for Corporate Event Bookings are made by Invoice.


    The Hungry Plaice will raise an Invoice to you at the time of booking and we require for this to be paid ahead of the Event Date.


    Our preferred method of payment is Bank Transfer However we can also accept BACs and CHAPs payment.


    We do not normally accept credit card and only do so on rare occasions.

  • Why can't I reduce the number of guests on my booking?

    We accept events based on the number of guests that are outlined by customers at the time of booking and whilst the number of guests can be increased we do not allow a reduction in numbers.


    The number of guests are a factor that drive the cost charged for the event and also aids our business arrangements and factors around food wastage.


    At certain times of the year we are extremely busy and turn away potential customers for dates where deposits have been taken. 


    If we were to allow numbers to be reduced this would also affect the price quotation.

  • Why are the prices at The Hungry Plaice higher than other companies?

    The Hungry Plaice provides a Premium service. We have Uniqueness in our vans and can claim there are no other Food Vans in the UK like ours.


    As we are running a business there are a lot of costs to cover. Our Food Vans are very old and require lots of attention to maintain and keep running. As they are of a certain age spare parts are very rare and therefore become more expensive day by day.


    Our products are of very good quality we only use Quality Ingredients from market leading suppliers to ensure our food is fresh and delicious for your guests.

  • Can The Hungry Plaice cater for Dietary Requirements?

    At The Hungry Plaice we have set items to allow us to Cater for Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten Free, Dairy Free and Religious requirements. 


    We do ask that Customers make their guests aware of our Food Safety Policies. We include an Indemnity Form with quotations to reflect this.


    We will provide an Allergen Chart with our Quotations which lists Allergen types in our products.


    If you are unsure please contact us for further information.

  • Will the Vans require any Power or Water?

    Our Vans are self-sufficient we carry our own cold and hot water and have a small silent Suitcase Generator that makes a minimum amount of noise.  

    We will welcome access to power if this is available.

  • Am I able to choose which Van comes to my Corporate Event?

    We have two Ford Transit Mark 2 Vans these are the same in shape and are both called "The Hungry Plaice", we cannot guarantee which van will be taken to your event and available for your date.


    The vans require lots of maintenance and we have to ensure they are both kept on the road and used evenly to ensure continuity in our business.

  • How long will is take for The Hungry Plaice to Setup/Pack Down

    One of our Strengths is that we have Self Sufficient Vans and we have aligned our processes so there is minimum disruption when we are Catering at Events. 


    We believe our Clients should spend their time enjoying their event and not worrying about the caterer!


    For an average sized Corporate Event we can setup and serve piping hot fresh food within 30mins of arriving on site for our Fish & Chips Van and our Pack down time is around 30mins.


  • Can you Supply Cold Drinks at our Corporate Event?

    The Food Van would be happy to provide Cold Drinks at your Corporate Event. 


    This would be an additional Cost that would be included in the quotation.  


    Please ensure you have made us aware of this requirement.

  • I would like to add something different to the menu would this be possible?

    We have a Standard Menu but are aware there may be something different you would like us to cater for your Event. For example you may wish to have Gravy instead of Curry Sauce for your Fish & Chips.


    Please get in touch so we can discuss your requirements.

  • We would like a quick service at our Corporate Event, how fast do you serve?

    We know that time is of the essence and we have aligned our processes with this in mind.


    Our Fish & Chip Van has a full sized Fryer Range Inside which allows us to cook Fresh Fish and Chips quickly and efficiently ensuring queues are kept to a minimum. 


    We are able to serve approx 100 people within 60 minutes!

  • Some guests did not turn up so can we have the leftover food?

    We are aware that in some circumstances there may be food left over.


    We are happy to supply you with any cooked leftover food however we will not accept any responsibility on how this is handled after we have left site.

  • Can you accommodate servings at different times/dates for our staff?

    The Food Van is able to consider larger Corporate Bookings where for example there are a number of shifts over a number of days.


    We can work to your requirements please email us for more details.

  • How can The Hungry Plaice help to cut down waste at our Corporate Event?

    We take pride in being a Business where we can take the environment into account.


    Whilst we cannot make all our items recyclable we can try as much as we can to cut down on waste and encourage customers to recycle.


    Therefore we do not bring outside bins and ask that customers arrange for collection of items  used by guests to aid recycling. 


    Our Trays and Wooden Cutlery are Biodegradable and we use paper napkins and greaseproof paper, these items make up a significant proportion of waste from guests and  and we will continue to look for more ways in which we can keep our waste to a minimum.
