Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Collier Row
Which station is closest to Collier Row?
The closest is Romford station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Could you trade in Raphael Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes. Send us your date and site details as early as you can.
