Questions from Shepherd's Bush
Could you trade in Hammersmith Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you serve after a service at Shepherd's Bush Tabernacle?
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.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
It is a full meal on its own. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.
Can you feed a lot of people?
That depends on how many and how quickly. A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A spot near your guests
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Flat, firm ground for the van
As a London location, Shepherd's Bush is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
