Fish and chip van hire across SW13

A fish and chip van works almost anywhere the van can park: a drive, a car park, a yard, a showground or a firm lawn in and around SW13. Typical bookings include company team days and gatherings after a funeral, serving curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips.

Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Cost

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

Local landmarks in Barnes

Locally, our bookings take us close to Polish Library POSK in London, St Osmund's Catholic Primary School and The Harrodian School. Also close by are Barnes Methodist Church (under half a mile south-west), Sun Inn (within half a mile west), Chiswick School (0.9 miles north-west) and Barn Elms (0.6 miles east).

Planning a chip van in SW13

SW13 covers everything from Putney, Barnes and Mortlake to 0 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.

Barnes: For guests coming by train, Barnes Bridge station is in Barnes itself. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like St Osmund's Catholic Primary School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. Light matters for evening service: in Barnes, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

Occasions we serve in SW13

There’s no kitchen needed, so it works on drives, car parks and showgrounds where other catering struggles.

Whatever the occasion in SW13, fish and chips from the hatch goes down well. We’re frequently booked for:

  • Evening wedding food
  • Garden parties and summer get-togethers
  • Wakes and gatherings after a funeral
  • Work Christmas parties

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Is a fish and chip van right for you?

A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks right there, so the batter is still crisp.

What your quote should include

  • A clear list of what’s included
  • Any travel, parking or access charges
  • How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun
  • How allergens are handled

For planners, venues and organisers

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

What affects the price in SW13

We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The day of the week
  • Distance and any road charges

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Details that help

These details help us quote quickly:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Roughly how many people, including children

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

FAQs for SW13

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Can you serve children?

Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

How fast is service?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Is it a full meal?

It is a full meal on its own. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
