The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger residents and fish-dodgers.

Sipson questions

Can the van park in Lake Farm Country Park?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Is parking a problem for the van in Sipson?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Do you cover Sipson?

We do. We serve events in Sipson and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Can portions be smaller?

Portion sizes are agreed in advance.

Can residents with special diets join in?

Yes: residents on soft diets can share the occasion with meals from your kitchen.

What about residents who don’t eat fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Working with your venue

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Where the van can park in Sipson

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Away from bedroom windows
  • A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
  • A clear way in for the van

Sipson is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

  • Cod and chips

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

What affects the price in Sipson

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How many people are eating
  • Parking and the way in
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How long we serve

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

To check availability and price, we need:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Where you’d like the van to go

What happens on the day

Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. In summer, Sipson has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day
