Fish and chip van for events for your event in Dulwich
When there is hot food, people stay longer, which is good for every other stall. We’re often asked to cater fundraisers and school fairs and sports days, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and chips.
In Dulwich, a chip van suits school fairs and street parties. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Space, access and the venue

- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
- Firm, level ground for the pitch
Dulwich 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’ll advise.

Before you book anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- The van’s size and access needs
- How many hours the van serves
- When final numbers are due
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. At midsummer, events in Dulwich stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
- We set up before the gates open.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch through the event.
- At the end, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
