Fish and chip van hire in Slade Green, cooked to order

You can keep it simple or plan it carefully: open service, or food at a fixed time. We will suggest what suits your event. Whether it’s festive get-togethers and weddings and evening receptions, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce for your guests.

London streets around Slade Green can be narrow and lined with parked cars, which makes off-street parking, such as a drive, a school playground or a car park, the easiest option. Send us a picture of the spot. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Perfect for your event in Slade Green

It is familiar, so nobody has to guess what they’re getting.

We can help if you are planning any of the following:

  • Christmas parties
  • Wakes and celebrations of life
  • Fêtes, fairs and school events
  • Milestone birthday parties

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

How to compare vans

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests

It helps to have bins and napkins by the van for everyone.

Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.

Should I sort the food myself?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Planning the van’s spot

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

As a London location, Slade Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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 will say what we think.

From the hatch

  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Haddock and chips
  • Gravy
  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips

Common questions in Slade Green

Could you trade in Braeburn Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Is parking a problem for the van in Slade Green?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.

How soon do we need to book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.

Is there a non-fish option?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which suits guests who don’t eat pork. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.

Why us?

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • We cover Slade Green and the whole of Greater London
  • Hot food handed straight over

  • Expected numbers
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • A picture of the space and the way in

How the day works

We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Slade Green, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:50pm.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Clear the route for the van
