Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
New Cross 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.

Christmas party fish and chips in New Cross, cooked to order

In New Cross, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Let us know about lighting and the way in. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Check the van can park on site
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan cover for the queue
- Book as early as possible for December
When service is finished, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
The process
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in New Cross, so put the van where there is 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.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Clear the route for the van

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
