Christmas party fish and chips in London Fields, cooked to order
For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you, if the date suits. We are often asked to cater festive open days and festive family gatherings, with haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
For Christmas parties in London Fields, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. In London, access needs planning. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Put allergy details in writing
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Where the van can park in London Fields
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Flat, firm ground for the van
As a London location, London Fields is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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 will say what we think.
