Food is fried to order, so nothing sits waiting. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and chips, and we are often booked for feeding event crew and village fêtes.
A fête near Tuesley might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. December events in Tuesley lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there is light until about 8:55pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Make sure the van can get in
- Name one person we can call on the day
Getting a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

Common questions in Tuesley
Can the van park in Phillips Memorial Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
Is Tuesley too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can the van come to Tuesley?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Tuesley. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What does the pitch need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, and room for a queue. Tell us about power and water.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we’ll explain the options before booking.
Can the van come to our fair?
Often, yes. Send us the date, location and expected numbers.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Offer a choice of traders where you can

Working with your venue
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Tuesley? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
What a fish and chip van costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Whether a minimum applies
- The date and time of year
- Cod, haddock or both
- How easy the site is to reach
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Anything awkward about the way in
