Party fish and chip van for your party in Southfields
A chip van works for birthdays, garden parties and family celebrations. It is food every generation enjoys. For big birthdays and retirement celebrations, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips and more.
Most parties in Southfields are at home, and in London that usually means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. Send us a picture. Timings are planned around your party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
The process
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Southfields drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.

Planning a party in Southfields
Southfields is about 2 miles north-east of Wimbledon, in Greater London. For parties in Southfields, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. We take the van to all 764 towns and villages across Greater London. You can also see our page for London, about 6 miles away.
If you had King George's Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans can’t simply park up and serve in a public park. If your drive is too small, local halls and clubs near Southfields can be an alternative, as long as the van can park outside.

If your venue is just outside Southfields, we also cover Earlsfield (1 mile south-east), Wandsworth (1 mile north), Summerstown (1 mile south), Battersea (2 miles north-east) and Clapham Junction (2 miles north-east). Further out, we also take the van to London (6 miles north-east), City of Westminster (5 miles north), Marylebone (5 miles north), Kensington (4 miles north), St Pancras (6 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (7 miles north-east).

Southfields: your questions answered
Can the van park in King George's Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Southfields?
Southfields has its own station: Earlsfield station.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
What do you need at the house?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we’ll take it from there.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
