How to compare vans

How our party fish and chip van works in Crofton Park

Sausage and chips covers the children and anyone who doesn’t want fish, so one van feeds the whole party. On the menu are mushy peas, sausage and chips and curry sauce, and we are frequently booked for birthday parties and naming days and christenings.

In Crofton Park, a party at home is the usual choice, and parking is the question. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Space, access and the venue

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

Crofton Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
  • Send allergies to us in writing

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Planning a party in Crofton Park

Crofton Park is about 1 mile south of New Cross, in Greater London. We take a fish and chip van for your party to homes, halls, workplaces and venues in Crofton Park and nearby villages. Crofton Park is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we bring the van.

After a christening at a church like Church of St Hilda, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends. A green space like Blythe Hill Fields is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, usually the council’s.

This part of Greater London takes in SE4, SE6 and SE23, and we can serve your party anywhere in it. Local streets include Ivy Road, Nash Road and Lindal Road; a party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. If your venue is just outside Crofton Park, we also cover Brockley (1 mile north-west), Ladywell (1 mile east), Honor Oak (1 mile west), Forest Hill (1 mile south-west) and Nunhead (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also take the van to London (4 miles north-west), City of Westminster (7 miles north-west), Marylebone (7 miles north-west), Kensington (8 miles north-west), St Pancras (6 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (5 miles north).

Nearby you will also find Lewisham Shopping Centre (1.1 miles north-east) and University Hospital Lewisham (0.7 miles east). Open spaces near Crofton Park include One Tree Hill and Knight's Hill.

  • Schools near Crofton Park include Prendergast Ladywell School (less than half a mile south-east) and Allenby Tutorial Trust (0.8 miles south-west)
  • Pubs nearby include Blythe Hill Tavern (0.7 miles south)
  • Other local spots include Nunhead (1.4 miles north-west)

Why choose a fish and chip van in Crofton Park?

A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. The van cooks right there. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • A clear quote before you book
  • We cover Crofton Park and the whole of Greater London

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Crofton Park

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Hilda?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Can the van park in Blythe Hill Fields?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can the van park on grass?

Usually, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

How early do summer dates go?

Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.

Which areas do you serve?

We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

Can the van come to Crofton Park?

Yes, we do. Crofton Park is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Organising for someone else?

Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.

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 work through them with you.

What happens on the day

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Autumn and winter parties in Crofton Park get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
