How it works
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Sunset in Northend in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- We start with a few details 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.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Give us a contact for the day

Questions from Northend
How far is Northend from London?
About 37 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
Early in the evening usually works best, before the drinks really flow. For a lunch, tell us your break time.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Where the van can park in Northend
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve

Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.
Festive lights by the van look great.

What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where the event is
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
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 you get to enjoy the day.
