Looking after everyone

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Keep the queue dry
  • Plan lighting near the hatch
  • Have a back-up for special diets

Send people out in groups in the cold.

Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.

About the food

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

How it works

You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Sunset in Hillingdon in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.

  1. Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get an access check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our spot and head off.

How to prepare

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Getting a price

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it’s pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

Why book with us

  • We cover Hillingdon and the whole of Greater London
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site

See our pricing or the cost guide.

For planners, venues and organisers

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Where the van can park in Hillingdon

We will be honest if a spot will not work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • A short walk from the party
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

Hillingdon is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

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

On the menu in Hillingdon

  • Sausage and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Gravy

Our booking checklist

Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

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

Hillingdon questions

Can the van park in Norman Leddy Memorial Gardens?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Is parking a problem for the van in Hillingdon?

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

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

What’s on the menu?

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Who clears up?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
