Chip van hire across NW11

Across NW11, we serve 4 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Hampstead, Finchley and East Finchley or a quiet village, the approach is the same: firm ground, access and agreed timings.

Temple Fortune: School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Garden Suburb Infant School, can book the van as a food stall. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like Saint Mary and Archangel Michael Church, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. Light matters for evening service: around Temple Fortune, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

How we price a fish and chip van

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The date and time of year
  • Service time
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How easy the site is to reach

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Where the event is
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.

Questions from NW11

Is a chip van good for a large crowd?

Often, yes. Give us your numbers and service time, and we’ll tell you honestly how service will work.

What does the van need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
