How the day works

Here’s how the day usually runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. In December, it’s dark in Harringay by 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. First, tell us about your Christmas party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Planning help

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • December Fridays go first: book early

Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.

Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

Before you choose a spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

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

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Our booking checklist

Takeaway run or book a van?

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.

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.

  • 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
