About our Christmas party fish and chips in Finsbury Park

Everything is fried inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. Whether it’s end-of-year club parties and depot Christmas treats, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, gravy and cod and chips.

Around Finsbury Park, 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, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

How the day works

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your Christmas party. Sunset in Finsbury Park 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.

  1. Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the spot for the van and send a quote.
  3. Arrival time and a well-lit spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
  5. We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Planning help

Before you choose a spot

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

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

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Gravy
  • Sausage and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips

What a fish and chip van costs

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The date and time of year
  • Your choice of menu
  • The number of meals
  • Parking and the way in

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

What to tell us

The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Where the van would park
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Check the van can park on site
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Plan lighting near the hatch

Keep the walk from the door to the van short.

Finsbury Park: your questions answered

What about parking in Finsbury Park?

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

Which station is closest to Finsbury Park?

Finsbury Park station, in Finsbury Park itself.

What time is best for food?

Whenever suits your party. Plan lighting, as it’s dark early.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

What does the van need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
