FAQs for Golders Green
Is parking a problem for the van in Golders Green?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
Can the van park in Childs Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.

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 generally the easier option.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Send round an allergy question
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
As a London location, Golders Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
