How our fish and chip van hire works in Kenton
Fish and chips is generous food: big pieces of fish, crisp batter and a mountain of chips. It makes the food a talking point. We’re often asked to cater staff lunches and team days and village fêtes and school fairs, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
In a London neighbourhood like Kenton, the van normally 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 tell us about driveways, parking bays or a council suspension when you ask for a quote. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Prices and what affects them

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The spot you have in mind for the van
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Put allergy details in writing
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We park, set up, fry and serve, and keep in touch with you about timings.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.

Which station is closest to Kenton?

What about parking in Kenton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Is a chip van good for a large crowd?
Often, yes. Give us your numbers and service time, and we will tell you honestly how service will work.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks right there, so it is crisp when it’s handed over. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.
Why us?
- A quote that spells everything out
