Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- Access checked by locations
- A lit spot for dark mornings or evenings
Belvedere is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Belvedere

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Name a contact in the production office
- Send final numbers the day before
- Plan bins and waste at base
Fewer choices mean faster service.
Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.

The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Light in Belvedere lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Give us a contact for the day

Belvedere: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Belvedere?
Belvedere station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Can the van park in Lesnes Abbey Woods?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, 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.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we’ll adjust where possible.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
