Fish and chip van for events for your event in Westminster

Country shows and field events suit a van, if the ground is firm enough for vehicles. Typical bookings include fundraisers and school fairs and sports days, serving chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

London street parties and fairs in Westminster need careful planning around road closures and access. Send us the pitch and timings. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

About the food

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

For event organisers in Westminster

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Having the party at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

How we price a fish and chip van for your event

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • How long we serve
  • The menu and how many choices
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • Numbers

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • The venue or postcode

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Agree when volunteers will eat
  • Share any nut or allergy policies
  • Agree how we will be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
  • Plan bins near food stalls

Have a hard-standing back-up pitch.

Let visitors know there is a chip van.

How it works

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your visitors, which we agree with you beforehand. Evening events in Westminster have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

How to compare vans

Should I sort the food myself?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Running an event in Westminster

Westminster is about 1 mile south-east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. From the centre of Westminster to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. We cover 764 places in Greater London.

We also bring the van to events in Millbank (1 mile north), Victoria (1 mile south-west), Pimlico (1 mile south), Vauxhall (1 mile south-east) and Lambeth (1 mile south-east). Larger places within reach include Kensington (3 miles west), Shoreditch (3 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (3 miles north-east), Whitechapel (3 miles north-east) and Hampstead (4 miles north-west).
