North End: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at St. Augustine's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to North End?
North End has its own station: Slade Green station.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. You can add your own desserts if you like.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What is fish and chip van hire?
The van comes to you, cook fresh on site, and serve when you are ready to eat.
How our fish and chip van hire works in North End
Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. Typical bookings include big birthdays and staff thank-you lunches, with curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Around North End, most London bookings are at homes with a drive, workplaces with a car park, schools and halls. The thing to plan is where the van stops, so let us know about off-street space or permits. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
