A chip van compared with other options
A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and typically costs more per head. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Brook Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.

Yes, we do. Brook Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Bringing the van to Brook Green
Brook Green is about 1 mile west of Kensington, in Greater London. People in Brook Green book us for all sorts of reasons, but the plan is always the same: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. We take the van to 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
PTAs at schools such as Larmenier & Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School frequently look for a hot-food stall for fairs and sports days. Thinking of using St Paul's Gardens? Parks generally need the owner’s permission, often the council’s, before a catering van can park or trade.
Anywhere in W6, W14 and W12, we can fry fresh for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes.

The process
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. By late September, sunset in Brook Green is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What else we do in Brook Green
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
