About our party fish and chip van in Streatham Hill
The queue at the hatch gets people mixing, which is what a party is all about. On the menu are mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for anniversaries and engagement parties and retirement parties.
In Streatham Hill, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Questions from Streatham Hill
What’s the nearest station to Streatham Hill?
Streatham Hill has its own station: Streatham Hill station.
Can the van park in Streatham Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Tell us how many children are coming
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
Planning the van’s spot
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
As a London location, Streatham Hill 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’ll advise before you book.
