Planning an event in Coney Hall?
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
As a London location, Coney Hall is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Coney Hall
How we price a fish and chip van for your event
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Your choice of menu
- The day of the week
- Service time
- The number of meals
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the van would park
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.
How it 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. At midsummer, events in Coney Hall stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- You send us the event details and pitch information.
- You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
- We set up before the gates open.
- We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
- We pack down at the end and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Give us a contact for the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we’ll check the date and send a price.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Coney Hall: your questions answered
Could you trade in Millers Pond?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What about parking in Coney Hall?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can the van come to Coney Hall?
Yes, we do. Coney Hall is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
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.

Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Have other stalls for special diets
- Share any nut or allergy policies
- Send us the pitch size and ground conditions
- Give us an idea of numbers
