A fish and chip van or other catering?

About our fish and chip van for events in Wood Green
Send us the event details and the pitch information, and we’ll let you know if we are available. For music and food festivals and club open days, we can cook curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips for your guests.
Events in Wood Green range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Public spaces normally need council permission, and we need a pitch the van can reach. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Wood Green
Is parking a problem for the van in Wood Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Can the van park in Woodside Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your visitors, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you trade at our fête or festival?
Tell us the date and pitch details and we will check.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Wood Green.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
The process
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your visitors can wander over to the hatch once service starts. December events in Wood Green lose the light at about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; in late May there is light until about 8:55pm.
- You send us the event details and pitch information.
- We confirm the date, what we need on the pitch and any documents.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch through the event.
- We clear the pitch when the event closes.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Let us know the serving time
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Getting a price
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Numbers
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.
