Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask for dietary needs on the crew info form
- Share the base location and route
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Agree how the base is left
We clear up quickly after lunch.
A dining area at base helps.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. On a winter shoot near Norwood Green, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
Getting a price
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Common questions in Norwood Green
Can the van park in Inwood Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Norwood Green?
Southall station, about 1 mile north-west of the centre.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes, include them in numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Lighting for early or late service
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
Norwood Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
