A closer look at the menu

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

Cadmore End questions

What’s the nearest station to Cadmore End?

Saunderton station, about 3.8 miles north-east of the centre.

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary Le Moor?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Can we choose cod or haddock?

We serve cod and haddock; we’ll agree the choice when we quote.

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.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

How does fish and chip van hire work?

We arrive with the van, cook fresh on site, and serve at the time you want.

Can the van come to Cadmore End?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Cadmore End. For a quote, use our quote form.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

Before you choose a spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?

Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your event is.

Why us?

  • No surprises in your quote
  • No kitchen needed
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch
  • Have a back-up for anyone who cannot eat from the van
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

After service, we pack up.

A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.

The process

Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Evenings in Cadmore End stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
