How our party fish and chip van works in Slade Green
A chip van works for birthdays, garden parties and family celebrations. It is food every generation enjoys. For street parties and retirement parties, we can cook pie and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.
Most parties in Slade Green are at home, and in London that generally means a drive or street parking. If you have a drive, the van can frequently go there; if not, check the street’s parking rules. A photo helps. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

Questions from Slade Green
What’s the nearest station to Slade Green?
Slade Green has its own station: Slade Green station.
Can you serve after a service at St. Augustine'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.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.
Can the van come to Slade Green?

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Let your neighbours know
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
Keep the queue away from the road if the van is on the drive.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
What happens on the day
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. In Slade Green, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you’re eating late.
- 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.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

- Distance and any road charges

- Where the event is
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where you’d like the van to go

Food your guests will love
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, Slade Green 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.

Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
A chip van compared with other options
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why us?
- A quote that spells everything out
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Hot food handed straight over
