Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Ellen's Green
What’s the nearest station to Ellen's Green?
The closest is Warnham station, roughly 4 miles away.
Is Ellen's Green close to London?
About 30 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
When should we eat?
At the time you choose. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Send round an allergy question
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
