Shooter's Hill events: pitches and permissions
Shooter's Hill is about 1 mile south-west of Plumstead, in Greater London. Bookings in Shooter's Hill come in all shapes and sizes, but it always starts the same way: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. We take the van to all 764 towns and villages in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for London, about 7 miles away.
If visitors are coming by train, the nearest station is Falconwood station, about 0.9 miles south-east. An event in Eaglesfield Park means agreeing traders and vehicle routes with the landowner, typically the council.
We cover events in every part of SE18, SE9 and DA16 and the streets around it. We can serve an event on streets such as Brent Road, Dover Road and Kinlet Road, as long as there is somewhere for the van. We also bring the van to events in Kidbrooke (1 mile west), Well Hall (1 mile south-west), East Wickham (1 mile east), Avery Hill (1 mile south) and Plumstead (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (7 miles west), City of Westminster (10 miles west), Marylebone (10 miles west), Kensington (12 miles west), St Pancras (9 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (7 miles north-west).
Well-known places in the area include Gallions Reach Shopping Park (2.9 miles north) and Greenwich Castle (3 miles west). Open spaces near Shooter's Hill include Summer Hill and Birdbrook Road Nature Reserve.
- Local schools include Deansfield Primary School (0.5 miles south-west) and Ark Greenwich Free School (0.6 miles west)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Bull Public House (under half a mile north-west)
Working with your venue
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Having the party at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
- Agree when volunteers will eat
- Offer a choice of traders where you can
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
If we’re feeding volunteers, agree a time that suits the schedule.
A few benches near the van help.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- Somewhere firm if it rains
As a London location, Shooter's Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Visitors typically gather round the hatch once service starts. Winter fairs in Shooter's Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there is light until about 8:50pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Make sure the van can get in

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

What do you need on the pitch?
A firm pitch with space for a queue. Tell us about power and water.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

How we price a fish and chip van for your event
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How easy the site is to reach
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A photo of the space and the way in
Still finalising the details? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your event, and we’ll quote on that. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Shooter's Hill?
At bigger events, a chip van works alongside other traders and spreads the queues. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
