In Oakwood, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Tell us about lighting and access. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The date and time of year
- How easy the site is to reach
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Oakwood
What about parking in Oakwood?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Which station is closest to Oakwood?
The closest is Winchmore Hill station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
Do you cover Oakwood?
Yes, we do. Oakwood is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
About the food
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
What you get with us
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Hot food handed straight over

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Plan lighting near the hatch

A bit of festive music by the van helps.

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
