Working with your venue
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Brunswick Park
Is parking a problem for the van in Brunswick Park?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Could you trade in Friary Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you park at the unit base?
Yes, wherever locations agree.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes, if they’re in your numbers. Tell us the day before.
About the food
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

How the day works
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your crew can wander over to the hatch once service starts. In December, daylight in Brunswick Park ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

What affects the price in Brunswick Park
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How long we serve
- Any minimum charge
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A photo of the space and the way in
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary needs, with numbers
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Lighting for early or late service
- Permission for the van at base
As a London location, Brunswick Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
