Planning an event in White City?
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a spot won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Light near the van after dark
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
As a London location, White City is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
On the menu in White City
- Haddock and chips

White City questions
Can the van park in Hammersmith Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to White City?
Shepherds Bush station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
Can the van come to White City?
Yes, we do. White City is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Where should the van go?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Can you do smaller portions for residents?
Tell us what you need and we’ll plan portion sizes with your team.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Do you offer repeat visits?
Yes, ask us about regular dates.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
