Our booking checklist

What the van needs

  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A spot near your guests
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

Kitts End 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.

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

From the hatch

  • Gravy
  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas
  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips

Can you cook in the rain?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Can the van park on grass?

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

Working with your venue

Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Step by step

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Kitts End; light the path to the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Clear the route for the van
