A chip van near Shoreditch
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

The van parks outside and serves hot food, without anyone leaving site. Typical bookings include christmas family parties and festive open days, with gravy, cod and chips and sausage and chips.

Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, Shoreditch is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Big or small, the van works the same way. Typical bookings include:

If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like Virginia Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well.

Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

Stagger groups so the queue stays short.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
