About fish and chip van hire in NW4

Keep it simple, or plan every detail: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We’ll suggest what suits your event. Popular choices include cod and chips, gravy and curry sauce, and we are often booked for fish and chip days at care homes and birthday celebrations.

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Looking after everyone

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Put bins and napkins by the van
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
  • A short menu helps everyone

After service, we pack up, leaving the pitch tidy.

Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Numbers
  • The minimum booking
  • How long we serve
  • How easy the site is to reach

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Your questions about a fish and chip van in NW4

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

Do we need to provide equipment?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

How do you handle allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Can you feed plenty of people?

It can be. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan it with you.
