Planning the van’s spot

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

Greenwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Party fish and chip van in Greenwich, fried fresh

Birthdays, garden parties, anniversaries and christenings all suit a fish and chip van. It is food every generation enjoys. Whether it is summer garden parties and kids’ birthday parties, we can cook pie and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce and more.

Planning a London party in Greenwich? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, at home, at a hall or at a club. Tell us about parking permits. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Step by step

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In Greenwich, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a DIY barbecue, 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.

Why book our van in Greenwich

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Bookings across Greater London, including Greenwich
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Take a look at our prices page and our guide to van hire costs.

Diets, allergies and planning

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, then serve as guests come up.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Greenwich

What’s the nearest station to Greenwich?

Greenwich has its own station: Maze Hill station.

What about parking in Greenwich?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

What happens if it rains?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Can the van come to Greenwich?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Greenwich is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

Can you park at our house?

Frequently, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send a picture of the drive and the way in.

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The length of service
  • How far we travel
  • The date and time of year
  • How easy the site is to reach

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your party.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The address or venue name
  • Expected numbers

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

About the food

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.

Occasions we serve in Greenwich

You don’t need a venue: a drive or firm lawn is enough.

If you are planning any of these, we can help:

  • Summer garden parties
  • Reunions and family get-togethers
  • Street parties and neighbourhood events
  • Family parties with children

No room for the van at home? A club or hall car park near Greenwich frequently works.
