Christmas party fish and chips for Hammersmith events
The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. December in Hammersmith means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
How to prepare
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Share the timings for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Earl's Court Free School Primary, suit a chip van.
What to look for in a quote
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
- The service time, and the cost of running over
- What happens if the event is cancelled or moved
- How allergens are handled
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
As a London location, Hammersmith 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’ll say what we think before you book.
On the menu in Hammersmith
- Gravy
- Cod and chips
- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Keep the queue dry
- Confirm allergies by email
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
What affects the price in Hammersmith
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The day of the week
- Parking and the way in
- Numbers
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
Common questions in Hammersmith
What’s the nearest station to Hammersmith?
Kensington Olympia station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre.
Can the van park in Brook Green?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can the van come to Hammersmith?
We do. We serve events in Hammersmith and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Hammersmith?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
