Organising for someone else?

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Party fish and chip van in Higham Hill, cooked to order

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. For family reunions and anniversaries and engagement parties, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

In Higham Hill, 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. A photo helps. Timings are planned around your party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Looking after everyone

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Ask guests about allergies when they reply
  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Check the street’s parking rules
  • Give us separate numbers for children

We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.

Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

Higham Hill: your questions answered

Is parking a problem for the van in Higham Hill?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

We are gathering after a service at St Andrew's Christian Centre: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.

Do you need power or water from us?

Mostly just a good parking spot. Mention power and water and we’ll confirm the rest.

How fast is service?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

Do you come to Higham Hill?

We do. We serve events in Higham Hill and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Can you serve children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

How do you handle allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your party and we’ll send a quote.

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. A summer party in Higham Hill stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Make sure the van can get in

Space, access and the venue

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A spot near your guests
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

As a London location, Higham Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
