Party fish and chip van for your party in Brunswick Park
Everything is cooked as people come up, not left out on a table for hours. We serve gravy, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater garden get-togethers and anniversary celebrations.
Most parties in Brunswick Park are at home, and in London that usually means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A short walk from the party
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
As a London location, Brunswick Park 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
From the hatch
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Gravy

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.

Common questions in Brunswick Park
We’re gathering after a service at Oakleigh Community Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the van park in Friary Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Is grass a problem?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Can you come to a street party?
Often, yes. Start the road closure application early.
Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Sunset in Brunswick Park drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
How to get a price
