Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is pork only. A chip van gives a choice. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A spot near your guests

As a London location, Heath Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Heath Park

Is parking a problem for the van in Heath Park?

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

What’s the nearest station to Heath Park?

Gidea Park station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.

Do you cater Christmas fairs?

Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Contact us with the date.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

What happens if it rains?

The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.

The process

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. December in Heath Park means early darkness: sunset is about 3:50pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Ask for a quote

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.
