A chip van near Knightsbridge

Fish and chip van hire in Knightsbridge, cooked to order

Keep it simple, or plan every detail: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We will suggest what suits your event. Whether it is staff thank-you lunches and festive get-togethers, we can cook cod and chips, gravy and pie and chips for your guests.

Streets in Knightsbridge are frequently tight, which makes off-street parking, such as a drive, a school playground or a car park, the easiest option. Send us a picture of the spot. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

FAQs for Knightsbridge

Is parking a problem for the van in Knightsbridge?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

We’re gathering after a service at Deutsche Evangelische Christuskirche: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.

Do you cover Knightsbridge?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Knightsbridge is within our area and the rest of Greater London. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.

Can you feed a lot of people?

That depends on how many and how quickly. A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving.

How do you handle allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

What does it cost to hire the van?

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.

The process

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. Light matters for evening service: in Knightsbridge, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
  3. On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, we clear up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

What comes out of the fryer

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
