Party fish and chip van for your party in Acton Vale
Guests who don’t know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. Whether it is reunions and family get-togethers and anniversaries and engagement parties, we can cook haddock and chips, pie and chips and curry sauce and more.
Most parties in Acton Vale are at home, and in London that usually means a drive or street parking. If you have a drive, the van can often go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. Send us a picture. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Why choose party fish and chip van in Acton Vale?
It feels like a treat.
The van suits big events and small ones. Common bookings include:
- Milestone birthdays
- Get-togethers with old friends
- Anniversaries and engagement parties
- Street parties and neighbourhood events
If you had Wormholt Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Arrange an alternative if needed
It’s worth telling the neighbours, or invite them.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A short walk from the party
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
As a London location, Acton Vale is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

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 typically 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 solves that by cooking on site.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Acton Vale
Could you trade in Wormholt Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Acton Vale?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
Does the batter contain gluten?

The process
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. At midsummer, it’s light in Acton Vale until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.
Getting ready for the day
