Planning an event in Notting Hill?
Step by step
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. A summer party in Notting Hill stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Give us a contact for the day

Party fish and chip van for your party in Notting Hill
Guests who don’t know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we are frequently booked for naming days and christenings and retirement parties.
Planning a London party in Notting Hill? A van means no cooking for you, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

What affects the price in Notting Hill
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Your choice of menu
- How easy the site is to reach
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Notting Hill
We’re gathering after a service at St John's Notting Hill: 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. Send us the address.
Could you trade in Holland Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is there a kids’ option?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include them in your numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Party venues around Notting Hill
Notting Hill is about 1 mile north of Kensington, in Greater London. Whether your party is in the middle of Notting Hill or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. Notting Hill is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.
Guests arriving by train should know that Shepherds Bush station is about 0.6 miles away. If you had Holland Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park.
We serve parties across the W11, W8 and W2 postcode area. From Walmer Road, Aubrey Road and Sirdar Road or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there.

Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
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.
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Send us a picture of the drive
- Let your neighbours know
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, and serve as the party carries on.
Finish with the birthday cake.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
For a party that feels special but relaxed, a chip van is hard to beat. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book our van in Notting Hill
- A clear quote before booking
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Something for guests to gather round

Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A clear area by the serving hatch
Notting Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
