How fish and chip van for events works in City of London

The van is self-sufficient on the pitch, which helps volunteer-run events. Typical bookings include community open days and sports days, serving sausage and chips, chips and haddock and chips.

Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed.

  1. Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
  2. You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
  3. We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch through the event.
  5. We clear the pitch when the event closes.

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Planning the van’s spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • Space for a queue away from paths
  • Agreement from the site for a catering van
  • Firm, level ground for the pitch

Questions from City of London

What happens if it rains?

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

How big a pitch do you need?

Send us the pitch details, and we’ll check it works.

Does the batter contain gluten?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we’ll explain the options before you book.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.

Can you come to a school event?

We do. We’ll agree access before the children arrive.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, including City of London. See all areas.
