A chip van near North End
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:
- Confirmation the van can trade there
- What’s available on the pitch
- Firm, level ground for the pitch
As a London location, North End 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.

Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Why choose a fish and chip van in North End?
Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food is a draw when it is cool. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.

The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. At midsummer, events in North End stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Share the timings for the day
