Greenhill questions
Can the van park in Northwick Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Greenhill?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Can fish and chips be the only food?
Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What the van needs
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A spot near your guests
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Greenhill 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Greenhill: venues, parking and local tips
Greenhill is about 1 mile north-east of Harrow, in Greater London. For events in Greenhill, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. We take the van to all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Greenhill to London (about 12 miles away).
If you had Northwick Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park. Among the historic houses close to Greenhill are Headstone Manor (1.1 miles north-west) and Northolt Manor (3.1 miles south-west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for vans, so check before you book.
We cover events in every part of HA1, HA3 and HA2 and the streets around it. Local streets include Lyon Road, Hill Road and Byron Road; an event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park.

How we price a fish and chip van
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the way in
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges
- Whether a minimum applies
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where the event is
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
How the day works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Light matters for evening service: in Greenhill, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
- Give us separate numbers for children
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we get there in good time. If timings shift, we adapt.
Put the menu up by the hatch so people decide while they wait.
- 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
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
