Party fish and chip van in Roehampton, cooked to order

Throwing a party in Roehampton? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Planning the van’s spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
As a London location, Roehampton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
Popular choices

- Cod and chips

- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
Working with your venue
Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Access and parking
- The menu and how many choices
- The date and time of year
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where the van would park
- Where the event is
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

Common questions in Roehampton
Can you serve after a service at St Margaret's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is parking a problem for the van in Roehampton?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Will the van fit on our drive?
Generally, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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 normally the easier option.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Send us a picture of the drive
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in, before the cake.
Put the menu up by the van.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
