Party fish and chip van in Hayes, fried fresh
A chip van also works for street parties, once the council has agreed the road closure. For children’s parties and milestone birthdays, we can cook pie and chips, gravy and cod and chips for your guests.
In Hayes, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. Send us a photo. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your party, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
As a London location, Hayes is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
