Hale End: your questions answered
What about parking in Hale End?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
What’s the nearest station to Hale End?
Highams Park station, in Hale End itself.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
Can you serve in the cold?
We cook inside the van, so the weather does not stop us. Keep the van close to the door.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
What time is best for food?
Early in the evening normally works best. For a lunch, tell us your break time.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
For event organisers in Hale End
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
- The date and time of year
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and serving time
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
A chip van compared with other options
Next to a Christmas meal out, a van brings the meal to the team. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- We cover Hale End and the whole of Greater London
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- All the chip-shop extras
- A clear quote before you book

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, Hale End is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
