Where the van can park in Kitts End

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
A route in without tight gates or low branches

As a London location, Kitts End is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Funeral and wake catering for your wake in Kitts End

We cook as people come up. We serve haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we’re frequently booked for family gatherings after a burial or cremation and wakes at a pub or venue with outside space.

In Kitts End, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. We need somewhere the van can park legally and safely, which we can help you think through. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

The menu and how many choices
Access and parking

How many people are eating

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Where you’d like the van to go
Expected numbers
Allergies and diets you know about
The address or venue name

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

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

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A sit-down meal can feel formal. A van keeps it relaxed. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

For event organisers in Kitts End

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Step by step

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with frying and serving. In winter, it is dark in Kitts End by about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting near the van. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.
