Sunbury-on-Thames has its own railway station: Sunbury station. Well-known places in the area include Kempton Steam Museum (1 mile north-east) and No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital (2 miles south).

Planning a chip van in TW16
TW16 covers everything from Sunbury-on-Thames and Ashford Common to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a chip van suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.
Sunbury-on-Thames: Parks such as Sunbury Park typically need permission from the council or landowner for a catering van, so check first. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like St Saviour, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Sunbury-on-Thames, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. The main points are:
- A short walk from the party
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- A short menu helps everyone
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Plan bins near the queue
It helps to have bins and napkins by the van for everyone.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.
What affects the price in TW16
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How far we travel
- The length of service
- The number of meals
- Whether a minimum applies
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where you’d like the van to go
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which helps if some guests do not eat pork.

- When payment is due
- VAT, if it applies
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- Whether there is a minimum
Questions from TW16
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
What happens when we hire the van?
The van comes to you, fry everything to order, and serve when you are ready to eat.
Is it a full meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. You can add your own desserts if you like.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Surrey. See all areas.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
