Party fish and chip van for your party in Putney
There’s no need for a venue: the van makes your home the party venue. We are frequently asked to cater anniversary celebrations and reunions and family get-togethers, serving gravy, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
In Putney, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. If you have a drive, the van can often go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. Send us a picture. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. A summer party in Putney stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, 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.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Give us a contact for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

FAQs for Putney
Can the van park in Bishops Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Putney?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
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 picture if you can.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
Working with your venue
Organising a club, school or community event in Putney? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A clear area by the serving hatch
As a London location, Putney is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
