FAQs for Whitechapel
What about parking in Whitechapel?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Could you trade in Finsbury Circus?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Give us break and shift times
- Find out what documents the site needs
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
