Party fish and chip van in Avery Hill, cooked to order
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. Typical bookings include children’s parties and christenings and naming days, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
Planning a London party in Avery Hill? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, at home, at a hall or at a club. Mention any parking restrictions. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- How many people are eating
- Whether a minimum applies
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Where the van would park
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Hosting a chip van party in Avery Hill
Avery Hill is about 1 mile north-east of Eltham, in Greater London. We take a fish and chip van for your party to drives, car parks, yards and venues around Avery Hill and nearby villages. We serve 764 places across Greater London. You can also see our page for London, about 8 miles away.
If you had Shoulder of Mutton Green in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park. If the day starts at Church of Holy Trinity, the van can be ready at the house when everyone arrives.
For parties in SE9, DA15 and DA16, we just need to know where the van can park. Local streets include Bexley Road, Glenure Road and Perpins Road; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Avery Hill sits on or near the A210, so getting the van to your party is simple. Close by, we cover parties in Blackfen (1 mile east), Eltham (1 mile south-west), New Eltham (1 mile south), Falconwood (1 mile north-east) and Well Hall (1 mile west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (8 miles north-west), City of Westminster (11 miles north-west), Marylebone (11 miles north-west), Kensington (12 miles west), St Pancras (10 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (8 miles north-west).
Nearby you’ll also find Greenwich Castle (3.8 miles north-west) and Metropolitan Police Museum (1.7 miles south-east). Within reach you will find Summer Hill and The Tarn.
- Nearby schools include Alderwood Primary School (0.5 miles south-east)
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In Avery Hill, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- First, tell us about your party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Questions from Avery Hill

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you trade in Shoulder of Mutton Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
Will the van fit on our drive?
That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll tell you honestly.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
