Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Fish and chip van for events in Parsons Green, fried fresh
We bring the van and everything we need to cook, so we need little help from busy volunteers. We serve mushy peas, chips and curry sauce, and we are frequently booked for charity fundraisers and community events and country shows.
Events in Parsons Green range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Public spaces normally need council permission, and we need a pitch the van can reach. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Looking after everyone

We set up before visitors arrive, at the agreed time.
Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.
