How our party fish and chip van works in Greenford
A chip van turns a party into an occasion without anyone being stuck in the kitchen. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. We serve sausage and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater reunions and family get-togethers and engagement parties.
Most parties in Greenford 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. A picture helps. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long we serve
- Cod, haddock or both
- Numbers
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of where the van would go
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Greenford, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Questions from Greenford
Which station is closest to Greenford?
Greenford station, in Greenford itself.
Is parking a problem for the van in Greenford?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Will the van fit on our drive?
It depends on the drive and the access. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll tell you honestly.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you do something for the children?
Sausage and chips, generally. Tell us how many children to expect.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What the van needs
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Greenford is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
