Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Beddington: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Beddington?
Waddon station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
Could you trade in Waddon Ponds?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
What time will you serve?
Whenever suits your day. After the first dance is the most popular time.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Count suppliers working late
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
Evening food normally goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done and before the party really gets going.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Flat, firm ground for the van
As a London location, Beddington is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What happens on the day

- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
