Brentford End: your questions answered
Could you trade in Boston Manor Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Brentford End?
Brentford End has its own station: Syon Lane station.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac visitors in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for visitors are worth planning.

How the day works
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. December events in Brentford End lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.

- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A closer look at the menu
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Share pitch details
- Agree how we will be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
- Offer a choice of traders where you can
Have a hard-standing back-up pitch in case the ground is soft.
A spot near the entrance or main ring works well.
Organising for someone else?
Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The minimum booking
- Numbers
- Distance and any road charges
- How easy the site is to reach
Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where the van would park
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
