Spring Grove: your questions answered
Is parking a problem for the van in Spring Grove?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Which station is closest to Spring Grove?
Isleworth station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every production asks for different things, so send us the list and we will go through it.
How much does a fish and chip van for the crew cost in Spring Grove?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.

Questions to ask before booking
- What the price includes, item by item
- The deadline for final numbers
- Any minimum charge
- What happens if plans change
How the day works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we’ll adjust start times and pace. In December, daylight in Spring Grove ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

What affects the price in Spring Grove
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Parking and the way in
- How many people are eating
- How far we travel
- Cod, haddock or both
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The venue or postcode
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of the space and the way in
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Give us a map or what3words for base
We arrive at base in good time and set up, out of the way.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
Before you choose a spot
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Room for the crew to queue
- Access checked by locations
- Level, firm ground at base
Spring Grove is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
