Organising for someone else?

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a summer visit in Raynes Park, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Let us know the serving time

What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- Not blocking ambulance bays
- Light near the van after dark
- A route in without tight gates
As a London location, Raynes Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Raynes Park: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Raynes Park?
Raynes Park has its own station: Raynes Park station.
Could you trade in Cannon Hill Common?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
