South Woodford questions
Which station is closest to South Woodford?
The closest is Wood Street station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Is parking a problem for the van in South Woodford?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
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.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
If you are 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 saves passing messages back and forth.
How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. An afternoon Christmas party in South Woodford can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:50pm; light the path to the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
How to get a price
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.

Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A short walk from the party
- Confirmation that the van can park there
As a London location, South Woodford 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 are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
