Christmas party fish and chips in Dulwich
Christmas party fish and chips in Dulwich, cooked to order
The van parks outside and serves hot food, without anyone leaving site. For staff Christmas parties and end-of-year customer events, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips for your guests.
Around Dulwich, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Step by step
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. It gets dark in Dulwich by about 3:55pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Give us a contact for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Questions from Dulwich
What about parking in Dulwich?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
What’s the nearest station to Dulwich?
The closest is West Dulwich station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
When should we book for December?
Very early. Fridays in December book up first.
Space, access and the venue
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Dulwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
