Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Blendon
Can the van park in Danson Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What about parking in Blendon?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes, if there is a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Blendon is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What we serve
- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips

Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
