How our party fish and chip van works in Camden Town
We park on the drive or a firm spot near the party, with the serving hatch towards the garden. Whether it’s retirement celebrations and christenings and naming days, we can cook gravy, curry sauce and cod and chips for your guests.
Most parties in Camden Town are at home, and in London that typically means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. Send us a photo. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Camden Town?
Compared with cooking a barbecue yourself, a chip van means nobody is stuck at the grill. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

- A van that becomes part of the event
- Everything cooked to order at your event
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- A picture of the parking spot helps
We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, and serve as the party carries on.
Finish with the birthday cake.
Parties in Camden Town: homes, halls and local tips
Camden Town is about 2 miles north of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Across the NW1 area, we can bring the van to you. Camden Town is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van.
Historic houses near Camden Town include Winfield House (1.2 miles south-west) and Keats House (1.6 miles north-west). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on vehicles and caterers, so for most parties a home or hired hall is simpler. A green space like Lewis Cubitt Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.
Wherever your party is in NW1, N1C, NW5 and NW3, we can fry fresh for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Camden High Street, Greenland Road and Camden Road, and the van can serve a party on any of them with a suitable parking spot.

What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The minimum booking
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
