Everything is cooked as people come up, not left out on a table for hours. Typical bookings include anniversaries and engagement parties and reunions and family get-togethers, serving cod and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Party venues across Greater London

In Greater London’s towns, a party at home frequently means a short drive and street parking; in its villages, more space but narrower lanes. Tell us which applies to you. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within easy reach of places across Greater London, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles.

London: Parks such as Newington Gardens usually need permission from the council or landowner for a catering van, so check first. Guests arriving by train should know that Elephant & Castle station serves London directly. Sunset in London drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
