DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

December bookings are planned for the dark and the cold: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and service timed so people aren’t outside for long. Typical bookings include christmas fairs at schools and office Christmas parties, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
London Christmas parties in Norwood Green are often at offices, pubs with a yard or homes with a drive. Let us know about lighting and the way in. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Planners, venues and businesses
Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Book as early as possible for December
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Choose a lit spot for the van
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.

The process

- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Common questions in Norwood Green
Can the van park in Inwood Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Norwood Green?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
