Fresh fish and chips in Roehampton
Perfect for your event in Roehampton
People book a chip van because it is food and a bit of fun at once. The van becomes a focal point, and the food is hot and plentiful.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Fêtes, fairs and school events
- Visits to care homes and day centres
- Weddings, especially the evening
- Birthday celebrations
Thinking of using Putney Heath? Parks generally need the owner’s permission, often the council’s, before a catering van can park or trade.

Fish and chip van hire in Roehampton, fried fresh
Queuing at the hatch is half the experience. People chat, the smell drifts across, and the food arrives hot. On the menu are pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and we are frequently booked for milestone birthday parties and community events and fairs.
London streets around Roehampton can be narrow and lined with parked cars, so a drive, yard or car park is normally simplest. Send us a picture of the spot. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Food your guests will love
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A short walk from the party
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Roehampton 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

A chip van compared with other options
Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, nobody misses the event. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

How it works
You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Late September evenings in Roehampton lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.
