A chip van near St Pancras
Before you choose a spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A spot near your guests
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
As a London location, St Pancras is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

- Pie and chips
- Curry sauce

How our Christmas party fish and chips works in St Pancras
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, with hot food for visitors in the cold. We are frequently asked to cater office Christmas parties and christmas socials for clubs, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.
For Christmas parties in St Pancras, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. In London, access needs planning. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Check the van can park on site
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Collect allergies in advance
- Send allergies to us in writing
A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

- On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
