Fish and chip van hire for Maze Hill events
What the van needs
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, Maze Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

How our fish and chip van hire works in Maze Hill
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 garden get-togethers and milestone birthday parties, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
London streets around Maze Hill can be narrow and lined with parked cars, so a drive, yard or car park is usually simplest. Tell us what you have. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Bringing the van to Maze Hill
Maze Hill is about 1 mile north-east of Greenwich, in Greater London.

For a fundraiser at a school like John Roan School, the van can trade from a pitch agreed with the school. Churches such as Christ Church rarely have room for a van, but a hall or home close by typically does.

The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with frying and serving. In Maze Hill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
