What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

About our fish and chip van for events in Wealdstone

We trade at village fêtes, school fairs, sports days, festivals and shows. Whether it is feeding event crew and sports tournaments, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas for your guests.

In Wealdstone, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces normally need council permission, and we need a pitch the van can reach. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

Choosing a fish and chip van

What a fish and chip van costs

There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • The number of meals
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Parking and the way in
  • Your choice of menu

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Details that help

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Where the event is
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Where you’d like the van to go

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Wealdstone?

At a small fête, one good trader may be all you need, with cakes and teas alongside. Larger groups typically cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What’s the nearest station to Wealdstone?

Wealdstone has its own station: Harrow & Wealdstone station.

Can you cater for allergies?

Is there something for children?

Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Can you cater for helpers?

Yes, at a time that suits your schedule.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Diets, allergies and planning

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Tell us expected visitor numbers
  • Agree how we will be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
  • Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
  • Agree when volunteers will eat

Crew food is served at the agreed time.

What the van needs

Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • A clear route onto the pitch
  • What’s available on the pitch
  • Agreement from the site for a catering van

Wealdstone is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: 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 you book.

Should I sort the food myself?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Summer events in Wealdstone have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
