Step by step
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your Christmas party. Sunset in Burroughs Grove in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

Prices and what affects them

- Your date and serving time
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Rough numbers for adults and children

Where the van can park in Burroughs Grove
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
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 typically the easier option.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Burroughs Grove
Is Burroughs Grove close to London?
About 29 miles from central London.
Which station is closest to Burroughs Grove?

Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Does the batter contain gluten?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
