Fresh fish and chips in Northumberland Park

Fish and chip van hire in Northumberland Park, cooked to order

Fish and chip van hire means the chip shop comes to you. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. We are often asked to cater community events and fairs and weddings and evening receptions, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

Around Northumberland Park, 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 cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Northumberland Park: your questions answered

Which station is closest to Northumberland Park?

Northumberland Park has its own station: Northumberland Park (London) station.

Can you serve after a service at St Paul's Church?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

Do you come to Northumberland Park?

We do. Northumberland Park is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Does a chip van work for big events?

It depends on numbers and timings. A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • Confirm allergies by email

Fish and chips is best eaten right away, so we fry to order as the queue moves.

Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

What happens on the day

We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. In Northumberland Park, 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. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, the van and the queue need lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, we clear up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Make sure the van can get in

Planning help

For event organisers in Northumberland Park

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Perfect for your event in Northumberland Park

A van is food and an occasion in one. The hatch becomes a meeting point, and the food is hot and plentiful.

The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:

  • Visits to care homes and day centres
  • Evening wedding food

  • Community events and fairs

If you’re gathering after a service at a church like St Paul's Church, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van.

What the van needs

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

As a London location, Northumberland Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
