Ice cream van hire in Stoke Newington

Stoke Newington has a village feel within inner London, with Church Street's independent shops and cafés, Victorian terraces full of young families and a strong tradition of community action. Clissold Park is its back garden, Abney Park is a woodland cemetery turned nature reserve, and the two reservoirs to the north, one a water sports centre and the other Woodberry Wetlands, add yet more green space. Summer brings school fairs, street parties and birthday picnics.

Parking is controlled across most of Stoke Newington, and Church Street and Stoke Newington High Street are narrow and busy. The best spots for a van are often a closed road, a school or a church car park. Our vans serve on battery power, which fits a neighbourhood that cares about air quality: while we serve there is no engine running, no fumes at child height and no noise beyond the quiet hum of the freezers. Clissold Park events need permission from Hackney Council.
