Party fish and chip van for your party in Beddington
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, not left out on a table for hours. We’re frequently asked to cater family parties with children and anniversaries and engagement parties, serving cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
Most parties in Beddington are at home, and in London that normally means a drive or street parking. If you have a drive, the van can frequently go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. A photo helps. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Whether a minimum applies
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
- Distance and any road charges
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Expected numbers
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A short walk from the party
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
As a London location, Beddington is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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 booking.

How the day works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your party. Autumn and winter parties in Beddington get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so think about lighting by the van.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Common questions in Beddington
Can you serve after a service at Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Beddington?
The closest is Waddon station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
How early do summer dates go?
Summer weekends go first. Get in touch with your date.
Will the van fit on our drive?
Often, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send a picture of the drive and the way in.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
