How our fish and chip van for events works in Kevington

A van suits shows and field events, as long as there is a firm route onto the pitch. We’re frequently asked to cater school fairs and sports days and fish and chip supper nights, serving chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.

Events in Kevington range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Organisers usually need council permission for public spaces, and the van needs a pitch it can reach. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

How it works

When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your event. Summer fêtes in Kevington have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.

  1. It starts with your event and pitch details.
  2. We confirm availability, our pitch needs and anything the event asks for.
  3. We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
  4. We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
  5. We clear the pitch when the event closes.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Where the van can park in Kevington

If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
  • Details of any power or water on site
  • The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van

Kevington is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

For a reliable crowd-pleaser, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

Why us?

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Events in Kevington and across Greater London
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
