About our party fish and chip van in Barnehurst
Everything is cooked as people come up, not left out on a table for hours. For neighbourhood get-togethers and children’s parties, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
In Barnehurst, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. If you have a drive, the van can often go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. Send us a photo. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

What the van needs
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Flat, firm ground for the van
Barnehurst is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Questions from Barnehurst
Is parking a problem for the van in Barnehurst?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Could you trade in Braeburn Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
What do children eat?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Barnehurst?
A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your party is.

The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your party. We handle the cooking and serving. In Barnehurst, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies

Planning a party in Barnehurst
Barnehurst is about 3 miles east of Welling, in Greater London. Whether your party is in the middle of Barnehurst or on the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. We cover 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Barnehurst to London (12 miles away).
A christening at Church of St Paulinus followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. A green space like Braeburn Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.
This part of Greater London takes in DA7, DA1 and DA8. Whether your party is on Old Road, Grove Road and Manor Road or anywhere nearby, we can park up and fry there.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
