Party fish and chip van in Notting Dale
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Party fish and chip van in Notting Dale, fried fresh
Guests who do not know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. Whether it’s family celebrations after a christening and family reunions, we can cook gravy, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
In Notting Dale, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Questions from Notting Dale
Can the van park in Emslie Horniman's Pleasance?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Notting Dale?
Shepherds Bush station, about 0.7 miles south-west of the centre.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you come to Notting Dale?
We do. Notting Dale is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
How it works
We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. At midsummer, it is light in Notting Dale until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Let us know the serving time

Why choose a fish and chip van in Notting Dale?
Buffets are simple but rarely memorable. The van becomes part of the party. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For event organisers in Notting Dale
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Count children separately
Let the neighbours know the van is coming.
