We park on the drive or a firm spot near the party, with the hatch facing your guests. We serve pie and chips, cod and chips and gravy, and typical bookings are for leaving parties and engagement parties.

We park on the agreed spot and set up, then serve as guests come up.

Planners, venues and businesses

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

How it works

Here’s how the day generally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. For a late-May party in Osterley, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

How we price a fish and chip van for your party

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Numbers
  • The date and time of year
  • The length of service

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Your date and serving time
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Where the event is

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Osterley

Can you serve after a service at St Mary's Church?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Could you trade in Inwood Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

What’s on the menu?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.

Do you do street parties?

Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

How far ahead should we book a party?

As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
