Questions from Duckett's Green
Which station is closest to Duckett's Green?
The closest is Hornsey station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
What about parking in Duckett's Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Where should the van go?
Wherever suits the home, as long as it is level and safe.
Do you do regular visits?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.
Can the van come to Duckett's Green?
We do. We serve events in Duckett's Green and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
The process
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace. In summer, Duckett's Green has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
- How many people are eating
- Access and parking
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. Your quote spells it all out.

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where the event is
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Expected numbers
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
