Christmas party fish and chips for Adelphi events

Adelphi: your questions answered

What about parking in Adelphi?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.

Can the van park in Victoria Embankment Gardens?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

Do you do Christmas markets?

We do. Tell us the date and pitch.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

What if it’s raining or freezing?

The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.

What do we need to supply?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.

Christmas party fish and chips in Adelphi, cooked to order

A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, with hot food for visitors in the cold. Typical bookings include staff Christmas parties and lights switch-on events, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce.

For Christmas parties in Adelphi, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. Plan parking and access early. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Diets, allergies and planning

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Book as early as possible for December
  • Send round an allergy question
  • Tell facilities or the venue about the van
  • Put allergy details in writing

For a work party, food early in the evening generally works best.

Christmas music near the van sets the mood.

Step by step

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. An afternoon Christmas party in Adelphi can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there’s good light.

  1. We start with a few details about your Christmas party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Make sure the van can get in

Planning help

For event organisers in Adelphi

If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • Your choice of menu
  • The day of the week
  • How easy the site is to reach

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Where the van would park

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

We will be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. What matters most:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

Adelphi is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
