Fish and chip van hire in Walham Green, fried fresh

Queuing at the hatch is half the experience. People chat, the smell drifts across, and the food arrives hot. For evening wedding food and milestone birthday parties, we will put together a menu of gravy, cod and chips and haddock and chips and more.

London streets around Walham 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. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Takeaway run or book a van?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.

Planning the van’s spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

Walham Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Popular choices

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

What happens on the day

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Walham Green, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Common questions in Walham Green

We’re gathering after a service at Church of St John: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

What’s the nearest station to Walham Green?

Walham Green has its own station: Imperial Wharf station.

What does it cost to hire the van?

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?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Do you have allergen information?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Is there something for children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
  • Have bins and napkins near the hatch
  • Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • Give us separate numbers for children

The fryers take a little while to heat, so we arrive well before service. If plans change, tell us and we’ll adjust.

Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.

For event organisers in Walham Green

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.

A chip van compared with other options

A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and typically costs more per head. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park, and the food is cooked to order. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
