A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips

Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.

What the van needs
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- Confirmation the van can trade there
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
As a London location, Mayfair is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

How it works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. At midsummer, events in Mayfair stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Questions from Mayfair
What about parking in Mayfair?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Can the van park in Green Park?
