In Shepherd's Bush, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Let us know about lighting and the way in. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Shepherd's Bush?

A big takeaway order rarely arrives hot. The van fries on site. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What you get with us

  • Something for guests to gather round
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • A clear quote before booking
  • Rain does not stop the fryers

See our prices page and the cost guide.

The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Where the van can park in Shepherd's Bush

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • A short walk from the party
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

As a London location, Shepherd's Bush is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Agree the spot with the venue
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
  • Collect allergies in advance

A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.

Festive lights by the van look great.

Prices and what affects them

The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Any minimum charge
  • The number of meals

Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.

Details that help

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The date and time of the event
  • Where the van would park

Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Questions from Shepherd's Bush

What’s the nearest station to Shepherd's Bush?

Shepherds Bush station, in Shepherd's Bush itself.

Could you trade in Hammersmith Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

What if it’s raining or freezing?

We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

What does the van need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?

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

Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Organising a club, school or community event in Shepherd's Bush? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.

How it works

We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. By about 3:55pm in late December, it’s dark in Shepherd's Bush; choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Have a level parking spot ready
