Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Winchmore Hill: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Winchmore Hill?
Winchmore Hill station, in Winchmore Hill itself.
Can you serve after a service at Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Do you come to Winchmore Hill?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Winchmore Hill and the rest of Greater London. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer weekends go first. Get in touch with your date.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A clear area by the serving hatch
Winchmore Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
Popular choices
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Gravy
- Cod and chips
