For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
What affects the price in Pinner
There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- How far we travel
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Any minimum charge
- How long we serve
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Marrying at Christian Science Church? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening. Eastcote House Gardens can make a pretty photo stop, but check its rules for wedding groups first.

How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. At a December wedding in Pinner, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A second sit-down meal in the evening is expensive and formal. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Lighting nearby for evening events
As a London location, Pinner is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
From the hatch
- Curry sauce
- Evening fish and chips
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
FAQs for Pinner
What about parking in Pinner?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Could you trade in Eastcote House Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
How many portions do we need?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Many couples cater for most of the evening list.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we’ll park out of shot where possible.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
