Takeaway run or book a 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 generally the easier option.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan cover for the queue
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Let us know about coeliac disease
We park somewhere lit and get the fryers hot before the party starts.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Gipsy Hill?
For a Christmas party that feels a bit different, a chip van is hard to beat. Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Access wide and high enough for the van
As a London location, Gipsy Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
