How our fish and chip van hire works in Brentham Garden Suburb
Rain doesn’t stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. That makes it a safe bet for British events. On the menu are haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater community events and fairs and garden get-togethers.
In a London neighbourhood like Brentham Garden Suburb, the van typically parks on a drive, in a car park or yard, or on a street with the right permission. Parking is the main thing to plan, so let us know about off-street space or permits. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

A closer look at the menu
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Brentham Garden Suburb?
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which helps if some guests do not eat pork. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Questions from Brentham Garden Suburb
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Barnabas?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you trade in Castle Bar Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Does a chip van work for big events?
That depends on how many and how quickly. Staggering groups and keeping the menu short both help.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can the van park on grass?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
