What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Gravy

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

How it works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. After-work summer events in Mill Meads have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Clear the route for the van

15 questions to ask before booking

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

What affects the price in Mill Meads

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The number of meals
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Access and parking
  • The minimum booking

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Expected numbers
  • Where the event is
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A photo of the parking spot

Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, use our quote form.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why Mill Meads hosts choose us

  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Something for staff to gather round
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • A menu almost everyone likes

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Mill Meads

Is parking a problem for the van in Mill Meads?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Which station is closest to Mill Meads?

West Ham station, about 0.5 miles east of the centre.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.

Can we pay by invoice?

We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.

What happens if it rains?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

What can staff choose from?

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

  • 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
