A chip van near Norwood New Town
How our party fish and chip van works in Norwood New Town
The queue at the hatch gets people mixing, which is what a party is all about. For family reunions and garden parties and summer get-togethers, we can cook pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas and more.
Throwing a party in Norwood New Town? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Mention any parking restrictions. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Ensure the van can park legally
- Let your neighbours know
Keep the queue away from the road.
A gazebo by the hatch keeps the queue dry.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The minimum booking
- The day of the week
- The menu and how many choices
- Parking and the way in
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of where the van would go
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
How the day works
On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. A summer party in Norwood New Town stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get an access check and a clear price.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We serve hot from the hatch while the party carries on.
- We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Let us know the serving time

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Is there a kids’ option?
