Why choose a fish and chip van in South Harrow?
If you want evening food guests will talk about, a chip van is hard to beat. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Quick service from the hatch
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The length of service
- Your choice of menu
- The day of the week
- Numbers
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Nearby places to South Harrow

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
As a London location, South Harrow is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What we serve
- Evening fish and chips
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Don’t forget your suppliers
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.
A string of lights by the hatch makes a great photo.
Questions from South Harrow
What about parking in South Harrow?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
What’s the nearest station to South Harrow?
Northolt Park station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Will the van be in our photos?
It generally ends up in a few photos. Bunting or lights make it even better.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
