A chip van near South Lambeth
What the van needs
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, South Lambeth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

About our corporate fish and chip catering in South Lambeth
Food is fried to order, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for charity days and customer days.
London work events in South Lambeth often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan service to feed people fast. Let us know about access and security. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
South Lambeth: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to South Lambeth?
Vauxhall station, about 0.6 miles north of the centre.
Could you trade in Vauxhall Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, it is a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
