Fresh fish and chips in Ealing

How our funeral and wake catering works in Ealing

We understand that timings on the day can move, so we stay flexible. Whether it’s wakes at church halls and clubs and remembrance gatherings, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips and more.

For a wake in Ealing, a hall or club with a car park is often simplest, though home can work with a drive. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do before you book.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Ealing?

Some venues offer wake menus. A van works where they do not, or at home. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your wake.

Why Ealing hosts choose us

  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

Diets, allergies and planning

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Let someone else talk to us on the day
  • Check the hall or venue allows a catering van
  • Plan for a few extra people
  • Arrange tea and coffee separately

Remember the journey from the service.

Somewhere quiet to sit helps some guests.

Step by step

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. In autumn and winter, it’s dark early in Ealing; plan a lit path from the door to the van.

  1. It starts with the date, where the wake is and roughly how many.
  2. We check where the van can park and send a clear price.
  3. We agree a time to arrive and when food should be ready, allowing for the service running over.
  4. On the day we set up quietly and serve when guests are ready.
  5. Afterwards we pack up quietly and leave the spot tidy.

How to prepare

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Ealing questions

Can the van park in Walpole Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What’s the nearest station to Ealing?

Ealing Broadway station, about 0.5 miles north-east of the centre.

Do you take everything away?

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

Do you bring everything you need?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Ealing.

How much does fish and chips for the wake cost in Ealing?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Where the van can park in Ealing

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • A spot near your guests
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

Ealing 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’ll advise.

  • Sausage and chips
