Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Hampstead Norreys
How far is Hampstead Norreys from London?
About 49 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Hampstead Norreys?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you cover Hampstead Norreys?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Hampstead Norreys is within our area. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, West Berkshire included. See all areas.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have a back-up for special diets
- A photo of the parking spot helps
- Mention the van to neighbours
Put bins and napkins near the hatch.
A few lights around the van look great.
