About our party fish and chip van in Wandsworth

It’s a treat that feels special without being formal: paper portions of fish and chips in the garden. Popular choices include curry sauce, pie and chips and gravy, and we’re regularly asked to cater street parties and neighbourhood events and children’s parties.

Most parties in Wandsworth are at home, and in London that normally means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. Send us a picture. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Who books party fish and chip van in Wandsworth?

Everyone from toddlers to grandparents enjoys it, so it is ideal for family parties.

Here are some of the occasions we serve:

  • Retirement parties
  • Garden get-togethers
  • Children’s parties
  • Family celebrations after a christening

Nearby historic houses include Fulham Palace (1.5 miles north-west) and Carlyle's House (2.2 miles north-east). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on vehicles and caterers, so for most parties a home or hired hall is simpler.

Before booking anyone

  • A clear list of what’s included
  • The service time, and the cost of running over
  • What happens if the event is cancelled or moved
  • VAT, if it applies

15 questions to ask before you book

Wandsworth questions

Which station is closest to Wandsworth?

Wandsworth Town station, in Wandsworth itself.

Could you trade in King George's Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Do you bring everything you need?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Can the van come to Wandsworth?

We do. We serve events in Wandsworth and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

Where do you take the van?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Wandsworth.

When do you arrive?

We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

What affects the price in Wandsworth

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many people are eating
  • The day of the week
  • Service time
  • Cod, haddock or both

The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Details that help

These details help us quote quickly:

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Dietary needs, with numbers

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

Planning the van’s spot

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

Wandsworth 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

About the food

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

How it works

There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your party. The frying and serving are down to us. Sunset in Wandsworth drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get an access check and a clear price.
  3. On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
