Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
For a reliable crowd-pleaser, a fish and chip van is a great choice in St Pancras. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your event.

Take a look at our pricing and what a fish and chip van costs.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Make sure allergen information is available
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
- Offer a choice of traders where you can
- Agree how we will be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
Agree a wet-weather pitch on hard standing in case the ground is soft.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.

Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
- Information about power and water
As a London location, St Pancras is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
