How fish and chip van hire works in W9

There’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. We are frequently asked to cater weddings, especially the evening and summer garden parties, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your event in W9.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
  4. Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
  5. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

Fish and chip van hire in W9: local guide

W9 covers everything from City of Westminster, Kilburn and Westbourne to 0 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. In towns, plan parking and access; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.

Maida Vale: After a service at St Peter Elgin Avenue, the van can be waiting at a nearby hall or house. Nearby historic houses include Winfield House (1.1 miles east) and Kensington Palace (1.5 miles south). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for vans, so check before booking. Evenings in Maida Vale stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

For planners, venues and organisers

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
  • Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
  • Give us separate numbers for children

Keep the menu short and the queue moves quickly.

A chalkboard by the hatch with the menu keeps the queue moving.

Takeaway run or book a van?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
