Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Let us know about allergy rules on site
- Agree when volunteers will eat
- Settle the pitch terms early
- Arrange bins and waste collection
Put bins near the queue.
Pre-selling meal tickets helps us plan.
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Details of any power or water on site
- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- A queue area clear of rides and games
As a London location, Grahame Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Questions from Grahame Park
What about parking in Grahame Park?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Could you trade in Sunny Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we’ll explain the options before you book.
Do you trade at schools?
We do. We will need a safe route onto the site away from children.
What about visitors who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Grahame Park?
Burger vans are common at events. A chip van gives visitors something different. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
