Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Osidge
What’s the nearest station to Osidge?
The closest is Oakleigh Park station, roughly 1 mile away.
What about parking in Osidge?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac crew in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can the van come to our wrap?
Yes, it’s a popular wrap. Tell us the details.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Before you choose a spot

As a London location, Osidge is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
