About our party fish and chip van in Leaves Green
For children, there is sausage and chips, so one van feeds the whole party. We serve haddock and chips, mushy peas and gravy, and we are often booked for reunions and family get-togethers and summer garden parties.
In Leaves Green, 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. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Step by step
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. A summer party in Leaves Green stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check access for the van and send a quote.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Clear the route for the van

Hosting a chip van party in Leaves Green
Leaves Green is about 4 miles south of Bromley, in Greater London. For parties in Leaves Green, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. Leaves Green is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Leaves Green to London (about 12 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Down House (1.1 miles east) and Addington Palace (3.3 miles north-west). For most parties, a home or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict vehicle rules. A christening at Keston Parish Church followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. Leaves Green is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.
Wherever your party is in BR2, we can bring the van to you. From Ashmore Lane and Main Road or anywhere nearby, we will bring the van to you. We also bring the van to parties in Farthing Street (1 mile north-east), Downe (1 mile east), Nash (1 mile north-west), Luxted (1 mile south-east) and Keston (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include London (12 miles north-west), City of Westminster (15 miles north-west), Marylebone (15 miles north-west), Kensington (15 miles north-west), St Pancras (14 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (14 miles north).
Nearby you will also find Bethlem Museum of the Mind (3 miles north) and Princess Royal University Hospital (2.2 miles north-east). The countryside around Leaves Green includes Nore Hill and West Kent Golf Course nature reserve.
- Pubs nearby include The Kings Arms (within half a mile south)
Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Count children separately
- Let your neighbours know
Keep the queue away from the road.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
FAQs for Leaves Green
Can the van park in South Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you serve after a service at Keston Parish Church?
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. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can the van park on my drive?
It depends on the drive and the access. Mention anything tight, and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you do street parties?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
- Service time
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Your date and serving time
- Where the van would park
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Each quote is put together for your party. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?

Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Leaves Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
