Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Lissenden Gardens
Can the van park in Parliament Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to Lissenden Gardens?
Gospel Oak station, in Lissenden Gardens itself.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.
What if it is raining or freezing?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
How the day works
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests normally gather round the hatch once service starts. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Lissenden Gardens, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan where the queue will stand

Where the van can park in Lissenden Gardens
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
As a London location, Lissenden Gardens is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lissenden Gardens?

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
