FAQs for St Clement's
Can the van park in Headington Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
How far is St Clement's from London?
About 52 miles from central London.
Do you cater Christmas fairs?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
When should we eat?
Early in the evening normally works best, before the drinks really flow. For a lunch, tell us your break time.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
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.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
