Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in White City
Can the van park in Hammersmith Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to White City?
The closest is Shepherds Bush station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
Can you trade at our fête or festival?
Yes, where the date suits. Get in touch with the details.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Set a time for helpers’ food
- Share any nut or allergy policies
- Settle the pitch terms early
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
Plan where the queue forms.
A few benches near the van help.
What a fish and chip van costs
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The minimum booking
- Access and parking
- How long we serve
- The date and time of year
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.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Where the van would park
- Allergies and diets you know about
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will come back with a clear quote.
Community events around White City
White City is about 1 mile north-west of Kensington, in Greater London. Whether your event is in the middle of White City or on the outskirts, the service works the same way: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. White City is one of 764 places in Greater London where we bring the van. Our bookings stretch from White City to London (about 6 miles away).
School fairs, for a school like Ark Swift Primary Academy, are a natural fit for a fish and chip van. If your event is in Hammersmith Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for vehicles and traders.
Wherever your event is in W12, W11 and W10, we can fry fresh for your visitors, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Bard Road, Wood Lane and Abdale Road; an event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Neighbouring places where we serve events include Shepherd's Bush (1 mile south), Notting Dale (1 mile east), North Kensington (1 mile north), Notting Hill (1 mile east) and Kensal Town (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also take the van to London (6 miles east), City of Westminster (3 miles east), Marylebone (3 miles east), St Pancras (5 miles east), Shoreditch (6 miles east) and Walthamstow (10 miles north-east).
A little further out are Westfield London (within half a mile south) and Princess Louise Hospital (0.5 miles north). Open spaces near White City include The Long Water and Greville Place nature reserve.
- Nearby schools include Kensington Aldridge Academy (under half a mile east) and Star Chamber Academy (0.9 miles south-west)
- Nearby, you will find The Favourite pub (0.5 miles south-east)
- Local facilities include Ladbroke Estate (0.8 miles east) and Polish Library POSK in London (1.4 miles south-west)
Space, access and the venue
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- Agreement from the site for a catering van
- Access that avoids crowds
- Somewhere firm if it rains
White City is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, timed around your event. For an evening event in White City, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
