Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:

Welling: your questions answered
Can the van park in Danson Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to Welling?
The closest is Welling station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Do you cover Welling?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Welling and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
When should we book for December?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A short walk from the party
Welling is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
