Woodside in December: what to know
Woodside is about 6 miles south of New Cross, in Greater London. We cover Woodside as standard, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Woodside is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our bookings stretch from Woodside to London (about 8 miles away).
For colleagues travelling by train, Norwood Junction station, about 0.7 miles north-west, is the nearest station. Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of St Luke can book the van as a hot-food stall.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Planners, venues and businesses
Organising a club, school or community event in Woodside? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A spot near your guests
As a London location, Woodside is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Woodside: your questions answered
Can the van park in Ashburton Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Woodside?
The closest is Norwood Junction station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes. Send us your date and site details as early as you can.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Check the van can park on site
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Woodside?
For a Christmas party that feels a bit different, a chip van is hard to beat. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
