About our party fish and chip van in Seven Kings

Food is fried to order, so it is hot and crisp, not left out on a table for hours. Whether it’s street parties and retirement celebrations, we can cook curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips for your guests.

In Seven Kings, 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. Send us a photo. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Who books party fish and chip van in Seven Kings?

Fresh food beats a tired buffet.

The van suits big events and small ones. Common bookings include:

  • Garden parties and summer get-togethers
  • Birthday parties
  • Family celebrations after a christening
  • Kids’ birthday parties

A green space like South Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.

Questions to ask before you book

  • The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
  • The deadline for final numbers
  • What happens if plans change
  • Allergen information for each item

What the van needs

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

As a London location, Seven Kings is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
