How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Homerton

A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, serving hot food on a chilly evening. For festive open days and christmas fairs at schools, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, mushy peas and sausage and chips for your guests.

For Christmas parties in Homerton, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. Plan parking and access early. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Your choice of menu
  • Parking and the way in
  • How long we serve
  • The day of the week

There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

What to tell us

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Where the van would park
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where the event is
  • A picture of the parking spot

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, fill in our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Check the van can park on site
  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Confirm allergies by email

Plan cover for the queue.

A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

Planning the van’s spot

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you. What matters most:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

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

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

  • Cod and chips

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

FAQs for Homerton

Is parking a problem for the van in Homerton?

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

What’s the nearest station to Homerton?

Homerton station, in Homerton itself.

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.

What do you bring?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?

Food early on is usually wise, before the drinks really flow. For a lunch, tell us your break time.

Is grass a problem?

Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
