Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of the Holy Trinity with St Barnabas can book the van as a hot-food stall. A winter fair at a school like Holy Trinity and Saint Silas CofE Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

What happens on the day

There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your Christmas party. We handle the cooking and serving. December in Kentish Town means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Getting a price

Planning help

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • The number of meals
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The menu and how many choices

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Your date and serving time
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The address or venue name

What the van needs

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • A short walk from the party
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

As a London location, Kentish Town 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’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

On the menu in Kentish Town

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

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Common questions in Kentish Town

What about parking in Kentish Town?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.

Can the van park in Primrose Hill?

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

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Can you cook in the rain?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

How fast is service?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.

Can you serve in the cold?

The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.

Do you cover Kentish Town?

We do. We serve events in Kentish Town and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

What time is best for food?

Whenever suits your party. Plan lighting, as it’s dark early.
