Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Hounslow
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Dunstan: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Hounslow?
Sunbury station, about 0.9 miles south-east of the centre.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer weekends go first. Contact us with your date.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Do you cover Hounslow?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Hounslow and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
For a party that feels special but relaxed, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Count children separately
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.

What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
