Common questions in Edgware

What about parking in Edgware?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.

What’s the nearest station to Edgware?

Mill Hill Broadway station, about 1.1 miles south-east of the centre.

What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?

Early in the evening usually works best. For lunchtime, we will work to your break.

Do you take everything away?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes, it is a popular stall. Get in touch with the date.

Is grass a problem?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Prices and what affects them

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Any minimum charge
  • The day of the week
  • Your choice of menu
  • Distance and any road charges

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

What happens on the day

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with frying and serving. Plan your Christmas party in Edgware around the dark: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

About the food

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

A chip van compared with other options

For something other than turkey, a chip van is hard to beat in Edgware. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Space, access and the venue

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • Flat, firm ground for the van

As a London location, Edgware is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Cod and chips
