Common questions in Roehampton
Which station is closest to Roehampton?
The closest is Barnes station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Could you trade in Putney Heath?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first.
Can you trade at our fête or festival?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How much does a fish and chip van for your event cost in Roehampton?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
What do you need on the pitch?
Tell us the pitch size and ground, and we’ll check it works.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

For event organisers in Roehampton
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Roehampton events: pitches and permissions
Roehampton is about 2 miles south-west of Fulham, in Greater London. For an event in Roehampton, we can park on a drive, a car park, a yard or firm, dry grass in and around Roehampton. Roehampton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van. Our bookings stretch from Roehampton to London (7 miles away).
PTAs at schools such as Granard Primary School often want one reliable hot-food stall. For visitors coming by rail, the closest railway station is Barnes station, roughly 0.8 miles north of the centre.
Here we cover the SW15 and SW13 postcode area, and we can serve your event anywhere in it. That could mean an event at a home on Rodway Road, Cortis Road and Torwood Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere for the van. Other places close to Roehampton we cover include Putney (1 mile north-east), Barnes (1 mile north), Mortlake (1 mile north-west), East Sheen (1 mile north-west) and Putney Vale (2 miles south-west).

How it works
From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event. Summer fêtes in Roehampton have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Who books fish and chip van for events in Roehampton?
It is a hot meal for helpers as well.
The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:
- Club open days
- Community festivals
- Church fêtes and fish and chip suppers
- Horse and dog shows
For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as St Margaret's Church, a chip van adds hot food to the cakes and tombola.
What to look for in a quote
- What they can offer for dietary needs
- How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun
- If the price includes VAT
- What the van needs: space, access, power
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Have other stalls for special diets
- Settle the pitch terms early
- Share last year’s numbers if you have them
- Display allergens for each stall
Crew food is served at the agreed time.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food brings people in on cooler days. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why book with us
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- A clear quote before booking
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Events in Roehampton and across Greater London
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.

- Where you’d like the van to go
- Anything awkward about the way in
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.
