We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so nobody misses out. For team away days and end-of-project celebrations, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips and more.

Somers Town questions
Can the van park in Lewis Cubitt Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Somers Town?
Somers Town has its own station: London Euston station.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Somers Town?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- A quote that spells everything out
- Something for staff to gather round
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, Somers Town is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Staff usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. In Somers Town, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How far we travel
- Access and parking
- The menu and how many choices

- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
