About the food

Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
How the day works
The first sign we have arrived is usually the smell, about the time the first visitors wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Summer fêtes in Park Royal have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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 your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know the serving time
- Make sure the van can get in

Questions from Park Royal
Can you come to a school fair in Park Royal?
Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Send us the date and where the van would go.
Can the van park in St. Raphael's Edible Garden?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can the van come to our fair?
Yes, where the date suits. Get in touch with the details.
Can you feed our volunteers and crew?
Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
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.

Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue that doesn’t block walkways
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Access that avoids crowds
Park Royal 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 will say what we think before booking.
