About fish and chip van hire in DA18

A fish and chip van works almost anywhere the van can park: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field. We serve cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for work Christmas parties and weddings and evening receptions.

Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Fish and chip van hire in DA18: local guide

DA18 covers everything from Belvedere, Thamesmead and Crossness to 1 small villages and hamlets, and a chip van suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.

Belvedere: Coming by train? The nearest station is Belvedere station, about 0.5 miles north. A green space like Lesnes Abbey Woods is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s. Late September evenings in Belvedere lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:50pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.

Should I sort the food myself?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

How we price a fish and chip van

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • The number of meals
  • Access and parking
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The minimum booking

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

What we need to know

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • The venue or postcode
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Where the van would park

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: tell us the basics about your event, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.
