Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
- Plan bins near food stalls
- Share pitch details
- Agree when volunteers will eat
Mark out the queue area away from walkways, especially near rides and games.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
Enfield Lock is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Running an event in Enfield Lock
Enfield Lock is in Greater London. For an event in Enfield Lock, the van can park on drives, in car parks and yards, and on firm lawns and fields. We take the van to 764 places in Greater London. We serve events right across the region, from Enfield Lock to London (12 miles away).
PTAs at schools such as Prince of Wales Primary School frequently want one reliable hot-food stall. Church fêtes, at churches such as Ss Peter and Paul Church, are a natural home for a chip van.
This part of Greater London takes in EN3, and we can serve your event anywhere in it. Your event could be at a house on Bell Lane, Park Road and Albany Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere for the van.

Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Visitors will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. December events in Enfield Lock lose the light at about 3:50pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Name one person we can call on the day
