About fish and chip van hire in UB5
Rain does not stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. It’s a dependable choice for events in any season. We serve sausage and chips, gravy and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for garden get-togethers and staff lunches and team days.
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Fish and chip van hire in UB5: local guide
Across UB5, we serve 4 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Ruislip, Harrow and Greenford or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level spot, a clear way in and a plan.
Northolt: Thinking of using Northala Fields? Parks generally need the owner’s permission, frequently the council’s, before a catering van can park or trade. After a service at St Richard's Church, the van can be waiting at a nearby hall or house. Around midsummer it stays light in Northolt until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
