About the food

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Why choose a fish and chip van in New Malden?

A trip out to a restaurant is hard for many residents. The van comes to the home. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Why New Malden hosts choose us

  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • Everything cooked to order at your event

Take a look at how we price or the cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The length of service
  • The day of the week
  • Access and parking
  • Whether a minimum applies

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your care home visit.

What to tell us

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Anything awkward about the way in

To get a price, use our quote form. Give us the details of your care home visit, and we will check the date and send a price.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

The process

There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your care home visit. The frying and serving are down to us. With darkness by about 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in New Malden suit lunchtime.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Share the timings for the day

How to get a price

Each quote is put together for your care home visit. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability straight away.

Space, access and the venue

If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. What matters most:

  • Light near the van after dark
  • With the serving side away from windows
  • Close to the garden or entrance

As a London location, New Malden is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

From the hatch

  • Cod and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Pie and chips
