Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A spot near your guests
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, South Street is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Christmas parties in South Street: local tips
South Street is about 4 miles north-east of Oxted, in Greater London. In and around South Street, the van can serve from a drive, a yard, a car park or a firm field, close to your guests. South Street is one of 764 places in Greater London where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from South Street to London (about 15 miles away).
If a church like Church of St Mary the Virgin is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Charles Darwin School, suit a chip van. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 7 miles of South Street; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.
We cover Christmas parties in every part of TN16 and the streets around it. We also bring the van to Christmas parties in Tatsfield (1 mile west), Force Green (2 miles south-east), Titsey (2 miles south-west), Westerham (2 miles south-east) and Moorhouse Bank (3 miles south). We also serve nearby towns such as London (15 miles north-west), Stockwell (14 miles north-west), Orpington (6 miles north), Wimbledon (14 miles north-west), Kennington (15 miles north-west) and New Cross (13 miles north).

South Street: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to South Street?
Oxted station, about 3.7 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
What time is best for food?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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 generally the easier option.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Your choice of menu
- The number of meals
- How far we travel
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The venue or postcode
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
