Around Hampstead, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. Plan parking and access early. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Working with your venue
Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Keep the queue dry
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Collect allergies in advance
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
