Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Alscot
How far is Alscot from London?
About 36 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. Find your area.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
About the food
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
