What happens on the day
Here’s how the day usually runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. In Walworth, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.

- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Working with your venue
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Walworth? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
