About our party fish and chip van in Wimbledon Chase

Sausage and chips covers the children and anyone who does not want fish, so one van feeds the whole party. Popular choices include pie and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater reunions and family get-togethers and garden get-togethers.

Most parties in Wimbledon Chase 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. A photo helps. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu.

How the day works

We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. A summer party in Wimbledon Chase stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

Wimbledon Chase 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

From the hatch

  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips

15 questions to ask before booking

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a DIY barbecue, the host is not stuck cooking all afternoon. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

What you get with us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Something for guests to gather round
  • A clear quote before you book

For planners, venues and organisers

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Send us a photo of the drive
  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Make sure the van can park legally
  • Confirm allergies by email

Plan where the queue stands if the van is on the drive.

Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Questions from Wimbledon Chase

We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you come?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
