Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
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.

Grange Mills questions
Can the van park in Wandsworth Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Grange Mills?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
What about residents who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can portions be smaller?
Portion sizes are agreed in advance.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac residents in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
