Party fish and chip van in Mud Row

About our party fish and chip van in Mud Row

Everything is cooked as people come up, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. Typical bookings include children’s parties and engagement parties, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

A country party near Mud Row is perfect for fish and chips: cooked to order and eaten on the lawn. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

A closer look at the menu

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

How the day works

You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Autumn and winter parties in Mud Row get dark early: about 7:00pm in late September and 3:50pm in December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. It starts with your date, address and numbers.
  2. We check where the van can park and send a price.
  3. We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
  4. We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
  5. We pack up when we are done and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Planning help

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Send us a photo of the drive
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease

It is worth telling the neighbours.

Your own cake makes the perfect finish.

What a fish and chip van costs

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The number of meals
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your party.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • The address or venue name
  • Your date and serving time
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Questions from Mud Row

Is Mud Row too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

We’re gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: 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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.

What do you need at the house?

Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.

Can you park on the road outside?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What does the van need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Can you come to a street party?

Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.

Where do you take the van?

We cover London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.

Do we need to provide equipment?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Should I sort the food myself?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

For a relaxed celebration, a chip van is hard to beat. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
