Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it is a favourite with children.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
How the day 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 Sudbury Hill stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day

FAQs for Sudbury Hill
What about parking in Sudbury Hill?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Which station is closest to Sudbury Hill?
Sudbury Hill has its own station: Sudbury & Harrow Road station.
Can you feed our volunteers and crew?
Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for visitors are worth planning.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Where the van can park in Sudbury Hill
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue that does not block walkways
As a London location, Sudbury Hill 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 will advise before booking.
