Fish and chip van hire in Brentford, cooked to order

Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits waiting in a tray. We serve haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for big birthdays and wakes and celebrations of life.

In Brentford, the van might park on a drive, in a church car park or in a works yard. Tell us how the van gets in. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Organising for someone else?

Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Where the van can park in Brentford

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Access wide and high enough for the van

As a London location, Brentford is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Brentford questions

Could you trade in Kew Green?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What about parking in Brentford?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.

When do you arrive?

We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

Is fish and chips enough as a meal?

It can be. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

What happens on the day

There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your event. We handle the cooking and serving. Late September evenings in Brentford lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
  5. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Let us know the serving time

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet

A short menu keeps service quick, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
