About our party fish and chip van in Ickenham
For children, there’s sausage and chips, so nobody needs a separate meal. For engagement parties and retirement celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Most parties in Ickenham are at home, and in London that generally means a drive or street parking. If you have a drive, the van can frequently go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. Send us a picture. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How it works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. For a late-May party in Ickenham, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it is about 9:25pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.

Other occasions in Ickenham
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is 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 usually the easier option.
- 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
