A chip van near Moorhouse Bank
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
Moorhouse Bank is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

How our party fish and chip van works in Moorhouse Bank
Birthdays, garden parties, anniversaries and christenings all suit a fish and chip van. Everyone from toddlers to grandparents knows what they’re getting. Popular choices include sausage and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and we are regularly asked to cater street parties and neighbourhood events and get-togethers with old friends.
Most parties in Moorhouse Bank 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. A picture helps. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
FAQs for Moorhouse Bank
What about parking in Moorhouse Bank?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
We are gathering after a service at St Andrew's: 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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Moorhouse Bank.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Have a back-up for special diets
We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.
A gazebo by the hatch keeps the queue dry.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Anything awkward about the way in
