Party fish and chip van in Beam Park

How our party fish and chip van works in Beam Park

The van can park on a drive, a hardstanding or a firm lawn, with the serving hatch towards the garden. For get-togethers with old friends and naming days and christenings, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips for your guests.

In Beam Park, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. If you have a drive, the van can frequently go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. A photo helps. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • The day of the week
  • Numbers
  • How long we serve

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Details that help

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where the event is
  • Where the van would park

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

For event organisers in Beam Park

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

Why Beam Park hosts choose us

  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Mushy peas

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

Diets, allergies and planning

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Put bins and napkins near the hatch.

Put the menu up by the van.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A spot near your guests
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark

Beam Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

The process

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. Autumn and winter parties in Beam Park get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:50pm in December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

How to prepare

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
