Common questions in Mildmay
What about parking in Mildmay?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Could you trade in Highbury Fields?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Get in touch with the date.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- How long we serve
- Distance and any road charges
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The spot you have in mind for the van

Where the van can park in Mildmay
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A clear area by the serving hatch
As a London location, Mildmay 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
What happens on the day
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. It gets dark in Mildmay by about 3:55pm at Christmas; park the van where there’s good light.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have a level parking spot ready

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Confirm allergies by email
- Book as early as possible for December
- Choose a lit spot for the van
Plan cover for the queue.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
