How our party fish and chip van works in Temple Mills
You do not need to hire a hall: a chip van on the drive turns your home into the venue. Whether it is garden parties and summer get-togethers and family celebrations after a christening, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce and more.
Throwing a party in Temple Mills? A chip van keeps you out of the kitchen, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Temple Mills is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with cooking a barbecue yourself, the host isn’t stuck cooking all afternoon. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

How the day works
On the day, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule.

- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

FAQs for Temple Mills
Is parking a problem for the van in Temple Mills?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Can the van park in Mabley Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
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 plan a back-up spot.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
