Fresh fish and chips in Chelsea Harbour

Party fish and chip van in Chelsea Harbour, fried fresh

It feels like a treat, but stays relaxed: fish and chips from the van, eaten in the garden. Typical bookings include street parties and neighbourhood events and summer garden parties, with cod and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.

In Chelsea Harbour, 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. A photo helps. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.

Events we cater in Chelsea Harbour

It’s a real treat for guests.

Here are some of the occasions we serve:

  • Street parties
  • Family reunions
  • Birthday parties
  • Children’s parties

If you had Imperial Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park.

Before you book anyone

  • If the price includes VAT
  • How much space the van takes up
  • A clear list of what’s included
  • The deposit and payment dates

15 questions to ask before booking

For planners, venues and organisers

Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Chelsea Harbour: your questions answered

What’s the nearest station to Chelsea Harbour?

Chelsea Harbour has its own station: Imperial Wharf station.

We are gathering after a service at St Mary's 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 normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.

When should we book for a summer party?

Summer weekends go first. Get in touch with your date.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.

Do you cover Chelsea Harbour?

We do. We serve events in Chelsea Harbour and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

The process

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. A summer party in Chelsea Harbour stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Name one person we can call on the day

Space, access and the venue

If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you. What matters most:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
