Party fish and chip van for your party in Sutton Green
A chip van turns a party into an occasion without anyone being stuck in the kitchen. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. For naming days and christenings and retirement parties, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips and more.
Near Sutton Green, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.
The process
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. A summer party in Sutton Green stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check access for the van and send a quote.
- We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
- We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
- Afterwards, we clear up and leave you to it.

FAQs for Sutton Green
Can the van park in Mayford Meadows?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Surrey. See all areas.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
What do you need at the house?
A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

- The menu and how many choices
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your party is.
Details that help
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Anything awkward about the way in
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.
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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. The van cooks right there. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your party.
