Questions from Leamouth
Is parking a problem for the van in Leamouth?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to Leamouth?
Custom House station, about 0.9 miles east of the centre.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
Is there a kids’ option?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include them in your numbers.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How it works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. Sunset in Leamouth drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Clear the route for the van
Getting a price
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Show us where the van would go
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
- 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
