Party fish and chip van for Richmond events
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Party fish and chip van in Richmond, fried fresh
A chip van also works for street parties, once the council has agreed the road closure. We’re frequently asked to cater retirement parties and neighbourhood get-togethers, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
In Richmond, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. If you have a drive, the van can frequently go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. A picture helps. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

FAQs for Richmond
What about parking in Richmond?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Can you serve after a service at The Vineyard Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What do children eat?
Most children go for sausage and chips. Let us know numbers and ages.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
How early do summer dates go?
Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Richmond?
A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van gives people a choice. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Planning the van’s spot

- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
As a London location, Richmond is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
