What affects the price in St Giles
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Cod, haddock or both
- The number of meals
- The length of service
- The minimum booking
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
What we need to know
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the event is
- The date and when you’d like to eat
To get a price, fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your party, and we will check the date and send a price.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Put allergy details in writing
- Mention the van to neighbours
- Send us a picture of the drive
Put bins and napkins near the hatch.
Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
Planners, venues and businesses
Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Hosting a chip van party in St Giles

Parties anywhere in W1F, W1D and W1T start with a parking spot for the van and a serving time. That could mean a party at a home on Duck Lane, Drury Lane and Bridle Lane, wherever the van can park.

How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. A summer party in St Giles stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
