Party fish and chip van for your party in Old Oak Common
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. For naming days and christenings and retirement parties, we can cook mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
Most parties in Old Oak Common are at home, and in London that usually means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Have a back-up for special diets
- A picture of the parking spot helps
Let the neighbours know the van is coming.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Planning help
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

A chip van compared with other options
