FAQs for World's End
What’s the nearest station to World's End?
The closest is Grange Park station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Could you trade in Oakwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac crew when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Where does the van go on location?
Typically, if there’s level, firm ground. Locations will decide where.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Agree how the base is left
- Give us a contact for call-time changes
We clear up quickly after lunch.
A chip van wrap party is a great way to finish a shoot.
What the van needs
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Level, firm ground at base
- Access checked by locations
- A queue area clear of trucks
World's End is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The process
You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first crew wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Sunset in World's End is about 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
