December events across Bracknell Forest
Christmas parties across Bracknell Forest happen at offices and depots in Bracknell, Sandhurst and Wick Hill and at homes and halls in its villages. Plan lighting and a short walk to the van.
Bracknell: Bracknell is on or near the A322 and A329, so we can reach it easily in winter. Christmas fairs at a church such as Holy Trinity Church can book the van as a hot-food stall. In December, it is dark in Bracknell by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
A chip van compared with other options
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van in the car park keeps it simple.
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the event is cancelled or moved
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
- The van’s size and access needs
- What they can offer for dietary needs
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Your choice of menu
- The length of service
- Access and parking
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The address or venue name
- Where the van would park
- Rough numbers for adults and children
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
About the food
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Bracknell Forest questions
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you cater Christmas fairs?
Yes. Tell us the date and pitch.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
