Crooked Billet: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Crooked Billet?
The closest is Raynes Park station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Can the van park in Cannizaro Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Will the weather be a problem?
Not for the cooking. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Sunset in Crooked Billet 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.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
