Christmas party fish and chips in Anvil Green, cooked to order
It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, because service can be planned in waves. Whether it’s christmas fairs at schools and christmas socials for clubs, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, pie and chips and gravy and more.
For a Christmas party near Anvil Green, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of meals
- Parking and the way in
- Whether a minimum applies
- Distance and any road charges
Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
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.
