Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. What matters most:
- A spot near your guests
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
Highams Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Highams Park
Could you trade in Lloyd Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Highams Park?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Keep the queue dry
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
Afterwards, we pack up.
Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
What happens on the day
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests normally gather round the hatch once service starts. An afternoon Christmas party in Highams Park can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:50pm, so put the van where there’s good light.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Tell us when you want to eat

Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
About the food
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
