About our party fish and chip van in East Village
Guests who don’t know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. On the menu are pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and we are regularly asked to cater retirement celebrations and anniversaries and engagement parties.
Most parties in East Village 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. Send us a picture. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Planning a party in East Village
East Village is about 1 mile north-west of Stratford, in Greater London. People in East Village book us for all sorts of reasons, but it always starts the same way: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. East Village is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van.
Historic houses near East Village include Sutton House (1.8 miles west) and Valentines Mansion (3.7 miles north-east). If you are hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on catering vans first. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as St Eleutherius, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards.
We cover parties in every part of the E15, E20 and E9 postcode area. Your party could be at a house on Angel Lane, Major Road and Forbes Lane or the roads around them, wherever the van can park. We also bring the van to parties in Temple Mills (1 mile north-west), Stratford (1 mile south-east), Maryland (1 mile south-east), Hackney Wick (1 mile south-west) and Holloway Down (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (5 miles south-west), City of Westminster (7 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west), Kensington (9 miles west), St Pancras (5 miles west) and Shoreditch (3 miles south-west).
A little further out are V&A East (less than half a mile south-west) and County Borough of West Ham (0.7 miles south-east). The countryside around East Village includes Tower Hill and Old Ford Island.
- Nearby schools include Colegrave Primary School (0.5 miles east) and Eton Manor Boys' Club (0.5 miles north-west)
- Local pubs include The Cow pub (under half a mile south)
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. A van fries on the spot. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Why book with us
- No kitchen needed
- No surprises in your quote
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Everything cooked to order at your event
Take a look at our pricing or the cost guide.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A short walk from the party
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
As a London location, East Village is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How far we travel
- Any minimum charge
- Access and parking
- The date and time of year
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Expected numbers
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Show us where the van would go
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Why choose party fish and chip van in East Village?
With a van, the host gets to enjoy the party. It is also a bit of fun.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Street parties and neighbourhood events
- Christenings and naming days
