FAQs for Surbiton
What’s the nearest station to Surbiton?
Surbiton has its own station: Surbiton station.
Is parking a problem for the van in Surbiton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
Yes, with a level spot such as a car park and the site’s agreement.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
What the van needs
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A short walk from the party
Surbiton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
