Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
FAQs for Wanstead
Is parking a problem for the van in Wanstead?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Could you trade in Valentines Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.

What the van needs
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A spot near your staff
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, Wanstead is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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.
