Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
How our party fish and chip van works in Primrose Hill
The van can park on a drive, a hardstanding or a firm lawn, with the serving hatch towards the garden. For neighbourhood get-togethers and family parties with children, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.
In Primrose Hill, 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 picture helps. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Yes. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
Planning a party in Primrose Hill
Primrose Hill is about 1 mile south-east of Hampstead, in Greater London. For parties in Primrose Hill, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. Primrose Hill is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van.
Parks such as Regent's Park typically need permission from the council or landowner for a catering van, so check first. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards.
Parties anywhere in NW3, NW1 and NW8 start with a parking spot for the van and roughly how many guests. From Eton Road, Oval Road and Regal Lane or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. Main roads around Primrose Hill include the A5205, so getting the van to your party is simple. If your venue is just outside Primrose Hill, we also cover Haverstock (1 mile north), Belsize Park (1 mile north), Chalk Farm (1 mile north-east), South Hampstead (1 mile west) and Swiss Cottage (1 mile west). We also serve nearby towns such as London (4 miles south-east), Kensington (3 miles south-west), Shoreditch (4 miles east), Walthamstow (7 miles north-east), Hoxton (3 miles east) and Whitechapel (4 miles south-east).
Nearby you’ll also find Isokon Gallery (0.8 miles north) and Montfichet's Tower (3.1 miles south-east). Within reach you’ll find Parliament Hill and Adelaide Nature Reserve.
- Local schools include Haverstock School (under half a mile north-east) and St. Mary's Town and Country School (0.5 miles north-west)
- Local pubs include Princess of Wales pub (within half a mile east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Cecil Sharp House (0.5 miles east) and Metropolitan Borough of Hampstead (0.8 miles north)
Who books party fish and chip van in Primrose Hill?
No washing up, no cold buffet to throw away, which makes the morning after much easier.
Whatever the occasion in Primrose Hill, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We’re frequently booked for:
- Anniversary celebrations
- Retirement parties
- Street parties and neighbourhood events
- Get-togethers with old friends
If guests are coming by rail, Kentish Town West station, about 0.7 miles north-east, is the nearest station.
What your quote should include
- Whether there is a minimum
- How much space the van takes up
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The cancellation terms
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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 generally the easier option.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

The process
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. At midsummer, it’s light in Primrose Hill until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get an access check and a clear price.
- We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Share the timings for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
