- Anything awkward about the way in
- A photo of the parking spot

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.
Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in East Dulwich
Could you trade in Brunswick Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in East Dulwich?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Do you cover East Dulwich?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including East Dulwich. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can you park at the home?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
What the van needs
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A route in without tight gates
- Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
East Dulwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we serve
- Pie and chips
- Gravy
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. 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.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
