Party fish and chip van in Morden, fried fresh
A chip van turns a party into an occasion without anyone being stuck in the kitchen. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. Popular choices include pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we’re often booked for family celebrations after a christening and retirement celebrations.
Throwing a party in Morden? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Autumn and winter parties in Morden get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- We start with a few details about your party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Perfect for your party in Morden
With a van, the host gets to enjoy the party. It is also a bit of fun.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Street parties and neighbourhood events
- Kids’ birthday parties
- Naming days and christenings
- Big birthdays
Thinking of using Cannon Hill Common? Parks usually need the owner’s permission, frequently the council’s, before a catering van can park or trade.
What your quote should include
- What they can offer for dietary needs
- When final numbers are due
- The service time, and the cost of running over
- The cancellation terms
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.
A few lights around the van look great.
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:
- A short walk from the party
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
As a London location, Morden is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
