Common questions in Forest Gate
Is parking a problem for the van in Forest Gate?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Could you trade in West Ham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What can staff choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. For a staff lunch in Forest Gate, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
