How it works

You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your Christmas party. We handle the cooking and serving. By about 3:55pm in late December, it is dark in Fortune Green; park the van where there is good light.

  1. It starts with your date, site and numbers.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our spot and head off.

How to prepare

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

What comes out of the fryer

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

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.

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?

Next to a Christmas meal out, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

Can the van park in Kilburn Grange Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can the van come to Fortune Green?

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Can you come to our office Christmas party?

Yes, with a level spot such as a car park and the site’s agreement.

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:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

Fortune Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
