Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in New Cross
Is parking a problem for the van in New Cross?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Could you trade in Fordham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Can you come onto our site?
Often, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. Facilities will decide the spot.
What will facilities need from you?
Send us your site’s list, and we will go through it with you.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How it works
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. In New Cross, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
