DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Where the van can park in Millwall
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Information about power and water
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
As a London location, Millwall 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 we serve
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips

- Chips
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few visitors with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Plan something for visitors we cannot cater for
- Give us an idea of numbers
- Set a time for helpers’ food
- Tell us about the pitch
Plan where the queue forms, especially near rides and games.
Pre-selling meal tickets helps us plan.
FAQs for Millwall
What about parking in Millwall?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Could you trade in Mudchute Park and Farm?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we will explain the options.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Fairs, fêtes and events in Millwall
Millwall is about 1 mile north-west of Greenwich, in Greater London. We serve events at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Millwall and nearby villages. Millwall is one of 764 places in Greater London where we bring the van.
For anyone arriving by train, the nearest station is Deptford station, about 0.8 miles south-west. For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as Church of St Nicholas, a chip van adds hot food to the cakes and tombola.

Streets in the area include Creek Road, Wynan Road and Undine Road, and the van can serve an event on any of them with a suitable parking spot.

How it works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your event. The frying and serving are down to us. In Millwall, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
Ask for a quote
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

If you are organising a summer fair or sports day for a school such as Harbinger Primary School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser.
Before you book anyone
- The cancellation terms
- The service time, and the cost of running over
- When payment is due
- The deadline for final numbers
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Numbers
- Any minimum charge
- The menu and how many choices
- How far we travel
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
