Step by step
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Edmonton: sunset is about 3:50pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- Tell us what you are 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.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Edmonton for film and TV crews
Edmonton is about 9 miles north-east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Edmonton is well within our area, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Edmonton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van. You can also see our page for London, about 9 miles away.
Edmonton is on or near the B137 and B154, good for unit base access. Within reach of Edmonton are historic houses such as Bruce Castle (1.8 miles south) and Forty Hall (3.2 miles north). Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations.
Here we cover the N9, N18, N13 and EN1 postcode area. From The Broadway, Plevna Road and Galahad Road or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. With the B137 and B154 close by, Edmonton is easy for us to reach with the van. If your venue is just outside Edmonton, we also cover Upper Edmonton (1 mile south), Picketts Lock (1 mile east), Northumberland Park (1 mile south), Ponders End (1 mile north-east) and Bush Hill Park (1 mile north-west). We also serve nearby towns such as London (9 miles south), City of Westminster (9 miles south-west), Marylebone (8 miles south-west), Kensington (10 miles south-west), St Pancras (7 miles south) and Shoreditch (7 miles south).
A little further out are Municipal Borough of Edmonton (0.5 miles south-west) and Museum of Enfield (2.1 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Highams Park Lake and Ainslie Wood.

Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- Access checked by locations
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
Edmonton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
On the menu in Edmonton

- Sausage and chips

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
