Should I sort the food myself?
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- A picture of the parking spot helps
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
Let the neighbours know the van is coming.
A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.
FAQs for Chapel Row
Is Chapel Row too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Chapel Row close to London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can the van come to our street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
