FAQs for Boyn Hill
Is Boyn Hill close to London?
About 28 miles from central London.
Could you trade in Ockwells Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can the van come to Boyn Hill?

What can crew choose from?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the production needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- Light near the van if needed
- Clear of the shot and sound
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
