Chip van hire across W1T
Across W1T, we serve 11 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Marylebone, St Pancras and Soho or a quiet village, the approach is the same: firm ground, access and agreed timings.
Marylebone: Parks such as St Anne's Churchyard usually need permission from the council or landowner for a catering van, so check first. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as St Vincent's Catholic Primary School, can book the van as a food stall. By late September, sunset in Marylebone is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Is a fish and chip van right for you?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up cooking all afternoon. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Once everyone is fed, we pack up, leaving the pitch tidy.
A chalkboard by the hatch with the menu keeps the queue moving.
Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A spot near your guests
Your questions about a fish and chip van in W1T
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
What happens when we hire the van?
We arrive with the van, cook fresh on site, and serve when you are ready to eat.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
How much space do you need?
