Party fish and chip van in Bushey Mead, cooked to order

For children, there is sausage and chips, so one van feeds the whole party. We serve cod and chips, gravy and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater milestone birthdays and anniversary celebrations.

In Bushey Mead, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. Send us a photo. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

What happens on the day

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests usually gather round the hatch once service starts. In Bushey Mead, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.

  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Send us a photo of the drive
  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
  • Mention the van to neighbours

We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, then serve as guests come up.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A venue plus caterer can be expensive. A van on the drive keeps it simple. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your party.

Why book with us

  • No surprises in your quote

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
