Fish and chip van hire for your event in Welling
A fish and chip van works almost anywhere the van can park: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field. For wakes and gatherings after a funeral and staff lunches and team days, we can cook mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips for your guests.
In a London neighbourhood like Welling, the van typically parks on a drive, in a car park or yard, or on a street with the right permission. The thing to plan is where the van stops, so let us know about off-street space or permits. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.

How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Evenings in Welling stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it is dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Welling questions
What’s the nearest station to Welling?
The closest is Welling station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Can the van park in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Which fish do you use?
Let us know which you’d prefer and we will confirm the menu.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Do you come to Welling?
We do. We serve events in Welling and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- A short menu helps everyone
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Keep the menu short and the queue moves quickly.
Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
