Fish and chip van hire in North Greenwich, cooked to order

The van needs no kitchen, no hall and no crockery. It needs a level, firm spot to park and a clear way in, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. Whether it’s evening wedding food and community events and fairs, we can cook gravy, cod and chips and curry sauce and more.

Streets in North Greenwich are frequently tight, which makes off-street parking, such as a drive, a school playground or a car park, the easiest option. Tell us what you have. Everything is fried fresh at your event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

15 questions to ask before you book

Takeaway run or book a van?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

For event organisers in North Greenwich

Organising a club, school or community event in North Greenwich? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • A short menu helps everyone
  • Plan bins near the queue
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early

Bins and napkins near the hatch make life easier for everyone.

A chalkboard by the hatch with the menu keeps the queue moving.

How the day works

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In North Greenwich, 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’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Let us know the serving time

Questions from North Greenwich

Which station is closest to North Greenwich?

Greenwich station, about 0.8 miles south of the centre.

Can the van park in Mudchute Park and Farm?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Where the van can park in North Greenwich

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • A short walk from the party
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Lighting nearby for evening events

North Greenwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
