About our party fish and chip van in Duckett's Green

With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. On the menu are cod and chips, haddock and chips and gravy, and we are regularly asked to cater summer garden parties and anniversary celebrations.

Most parties in Duckett's Green are at home, and in London that generally means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A picture helps. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How to compare vans

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

How the day works

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. For a late-May party in Duckett's Green, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get an access check and a clear price.
  3. On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

What the van needs

Looking after everyone

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Send us a picture of the drive

  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
