FAQs for The Hale
Can the van park in Stoneyfields Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
What about parking in The Hale?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

Generally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Usually, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.

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.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Why choose a fish and chip van in The Hale?
For a staff treat people will remember, a fish and chip van is a great choice in The Hale. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.
Why book with us
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
