Party fish and chip van in Newington, fried fresh
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. Whether it’s reunions and family get-togethers and leaving parties, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips and more.
Around Newington, a garden and a drive is all you need. A chip van fits right in. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we serve
- Chips
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Gravy
- Cod and chips
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.

How it works
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. A summer party in Newington stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Share the timings for the day
- Clear the route for the van
How to get a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
