Questions from Westbourne
Can the van park in Emslie Horniman's Pleasance?

London Paddington station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can staff have lunch from the van?
Yes, it is a lovely chance for families to visit.
Where should the van go?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
How long will the queue be?
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.
Can you come every month?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.

How we price a fish and chip van visit
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Parking and the way in
- How long we serve
- Whether a minimum applies
- How far we travel
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. For a summer visit in Westbourne, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Tell us when you want to eat
