Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Tottenham
Which station is closest to Tottenham?
Tottenham has its own station: Bruce Grove station.
What about parking in Tottenham?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Do you trade at schools?
Yes. We’ll agree access before the children arrive.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
For a stall visitors will queue for, a fish and chip van is a great choice. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

Planning help
Can’t 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. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
For event organisers in Tottenham
Venues often 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.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
