Party fish and chip van in Shoreditch, cooked to order
We park on the drive or a firm spot near the party, with the hatch facing your guests. Typical bookings include children’s parties and big birthdays, with cod and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.
Most parties in Shoreditch are at home, and in London that usually means a drive or street parking. If you have a drive, the van can often go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. Send us a picture. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.

Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A short walk from the party
As a London location, Shoreditch is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Shoreditch questions
We are gathering after a service at St Leonard's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Shoreditch?
Shoreditch has its own station: Shoreditch High Street station.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Do you need power or water from us?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
Can the van come to Shoreditch?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Shoreditch is within our area and the rest of Greater London. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- The minimum booking

- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A picture of where the van would go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

What happens on the day
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. At midsummer, it is light in Shoreditch 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
