DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
What the van needs
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
Petts Wood is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: 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.

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why book our van in Petts Wood
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers

Questions from Petts Wood
What’s the nearest station to Petts Wood?
Petts Wood station, in Petts Wood itself.
What about parking in Petts Wood?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Numbers
- Parking and the way in
- The minimum booking
- The date and time of year
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The venue or postcode
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Your date and serving time
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
Step by step
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Staff generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. For a staff lunch in Petts Wood, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know the serving time
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
