Fresh fish and chips in Edmonton
Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Add an allergy question to your invitations
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Confirm allergies by email
- Fewer choices mean faster service
Once everyone is fed, we pack up.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
About our fish and chip van hire in Edmonton
Because the cooking is in the van, the weather doesn’t stop us. That makes it a safe bet for British events. For milestone birthday parties and staff lunches and team days, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
Around Edmonton, most London bookings are at homes with a drive, workplaces with a car park, schools and halls. Parking is the main thing to plan, so let us know about off-street space or permits. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Cold buffets are easy but forgettable, and there’s nothing warming on a chilly day. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. 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 event.
What you get with us
- Quick service from the hatch
- A quote that spells everything out
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- A van that becomes part of the event

Within reach of Edmonton are historic houses such as Bruce Castle (1.8 miles south) and Forty Hall (3.2 miles north). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on vehicles and caterers early. For a christening or celebration after a service at a church such as All Saints' Church, the van can serve at a hall or home nearby.
This part of Greater London takes in N9, N18, N13 and EN1, so your event can be anywhere in it. Streets in the area include The Broadway, Plevna Road and Galahad Road, and the van can serve an event on any of them with a suitable parking spot.

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
As a London location, Edmonton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we serve
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Gravy
- Curry sauce
- Chips
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Questions from Edmonton
We’re gathering after a service at All Saints' Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you trade in Pymmes Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Do you come to Edmonton?
We do. Edmonton is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Edmonton.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can the van park on grass?
Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
