Common questions in Kilburn
What’s the nearest station to Kilburn?
Queens Park (London) station, in Kilburn itself.
Can the van park in Queen’s Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
About our fish and chip van hire in Kilburn
There’s something generous about fish and chips: big pieces of fish, crisp batter and a mountain of chips. It turns a meal into an occasion. We’re frequently asked to cater work Christmas parties and Fêtes, fairs and school events, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Around Kilburn, most London bookings are at homes with a drive, workplaces with a car park, schools and halls. The thing to plan is where the van stops, so let us know about off-street space or permits. Timings are planned around your event, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The day of the week
- Distance and any road charges
- The minimum booking
- How easy the site is to reach
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Tell us how many children are coming
Once everyone is fed, we pack up, leaving the pitch tidy.
Tell people when the van opens.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

How it works
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. Late September evenings in Kilburn lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, park up and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
