Party fish and chip van for Bermondsey events
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Sunset in Bermondsey drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

About our party fish and chip van in Bermondsey
A chip van also works for street parties, with the right permissions in place. Whether it is anniversaries and engagement parties and big birthdays, we can cook mushy peas, gravy and cod and chips.
In Bermondsey, 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 picture. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
As a London location, Bermondsey is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
