Fresh fish and chips in Newbury Park
Location catering around Newbury Park
Newbury Park is about 3 miles north of Barking, in Greater London. From the centre of Newbury Park to the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. Newbury Park is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van. You can also see our page for London, about 9 miles away.
Within reach of Newbury Park are historic houses such as Valentines Mansion (0.9 miles west) and Eastbury Manor House (3 miles south). Period locations like these typically keep vehicles well away from the house, so agree the base early. Crew coming by rail can use the station: Seven Kings station is about 1 mile away.
Wherever your shoot is in IG2, IG6 and IG3, we can bring the van to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Lynn Road, Bute Road and Duke Road or anywhere nearby, we can park up and fry there. Main roads around Newbury Park include the A12, which makes travel to your shoot easy. For shoots just outside Newbury Park, we cover Gants Hill (1 mile west), Barkingside (1 mile north), Seven Kings (1 mile south-east), Ilford (1 mile south) and Cranbrook (1 mile south-west). We also serve nearby towns such as London (9 miles south-west), City of Westminster (11 miles south-west), Marylebone (11 miles west), Kensington (13 miles south-west), St Pancras (9 miles west) and Shoreditch (8 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Goodmayes Hospital (1 mile east) and Waltham Holy Cross Urban District (1.7 miles north). Within reach you will find Hainault Lodge and Hollow Pond.
- Local schools include Oaks Park High School (under half a mile north-east)

Prices and what affects them

- The length of service
- Any minimum charge
- Cod, haddock or both
- The day of the week
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your shoot is.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The address or venue name
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- A picture of where the van would go
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your shoot in Newbury Park, and we will check the date and send a price.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- The location’s agreement
- Level, firm ground at base
- A queue area clear of trucks
As a London location, Newbury Park 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 booking.
From the hatch
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Crew lunches
Step by step
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your crew, which we agree with you beforehand. Sunset in Newbury Park is about 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready

A dining area at base helps.
