A chip van compared with other options

Corporate buffets are normally cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book with us

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Rain does not stop the fryers

Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

What affects the price in Walthamstow Village

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Numbers
  • Parking and the way in
  • Any minimum charge

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for

Send a message round when the van opens.

Some teams make it a regular treat.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

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.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planning the van’s spot

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark

Walthamstow Village is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

How it works

You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. For a staff lunch in Walthamstow Village, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
