Questions from Sutton
Is Sutton close to London?
About 66 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Sutton?
Martin Mill station, about 1.7 miles south of the centre.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you come onto our site?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. We will agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
Food your guests will love
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 a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. A lunch-break van visit in Sutton is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 3:50pm in December or 7:00pm in late September.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Share the timings for the day

Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
