Newington Green questions
Can the van park in Highbury Fields?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
We’re gathering after a service at Newington Green Unitarian Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you cover Newington Green?
We do. Newington Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What do you need at the house?
A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Mention power and water and we’ll confirm the rest.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Mention the van to neighbours
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Count children separately
- Put allergy details in writing
When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.
What happens on the day
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Newington Green drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Newington Green parties: what to know
Newington Green is about 1 mile north of Hoxton, in Greater London. Across the N16 area, we can bring the van to you. We serve 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Newington Green Unitarian Church, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards. A green space like Highbury Fields is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s.
Parties anywhere in N16, N1 and N5 start with a parking spot for the van. Local streets include Dove Road, Burma Road and Piano Lane; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Newington Green is on the A1199, which makes the journey straightforward. If your venue is just outside Newington Green, we also cover Mildmay (1 mile south), Highbury (1 mile west), Canonbury (1 mile south), De Beauvoir Town (1 mile south) and Kingsland (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also take the van to London (4 miles south), City of Westminster (4 miles south-west), Marylebone (4 miles south-west), Kensington (6 miles south-west), Walthamstow (4 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (3 miles south).
Well-known places in the area include Stoke Newington (within half a mile north) and German Hospital (0.8 miles east). Within reach you’ll find Dartmouth Park Hill and Gillespie Park.
- Local schools include Stoke Newington School and Sixth Form (0.5 miles north) and Stoke Newington School and Sixth Form (0.5 miles north)
- Nearby, you will find Army and Navy pub (less than half a mile east)
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
As a London location, Newington Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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.
