Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Any minimum charge
  • The length of service
  • How far we travel

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • The date and time of the event

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

How it works

We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. December in Palmers Green means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get an access check and a clear quote.
  3. We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
  4. On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

How to prepare

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Share the timings for the day

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Ensure the van and queue are well lit
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier

Plan cover for the queue.

Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

Planning a Christmas party in Palmers Green

Palmers Green is about 6 miles north of St Pancras, in Greater London. Anywhere in N13, we can fry fresh for your guests. Palmers Green is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Palmers Green to London (about 8 miles away).

Train travellers will want to know that Palmers Green station is in Palmers Green itself. A winter fair at a school like St Anne's Catholic High School for Girls gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Streets in the area include Oak Lane, Fox Lane and York Road, and the van can serve a Christmas party on any of them with a suitable parking spot.

FAQs for Palmers Green

Can the van park in Broomfield Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Is parking a problem for the van in Palmers Green?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.

Do you cover Palmers Green?

Yes, we do. Palmers Green is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

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.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

What can guests choose from?

Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
