Our Christmas party fish and chips in Greater London

For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you, if the date suits. Typical bookings include festive gatherings after Christmas and end-of-year customer events, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with frying and serving.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Cost

Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What you get with us

  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Events across Greater London

Festive bookings in Greater London

In Greater London’s towns, a Christmas party might be in a car park by the office; in its villages, at the hall or a farmhouse. Tell us about lighting and access. Parts of Greater London are within a few miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so check venue rules on vehicles for countryside events.

London: If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Charles Dickens Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well. For colleagues travelling by train, London has its own station, Elephant & Castle station. An afternoon Christmas party in London can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there is good light.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

For something other than turkey, a chip van is hard to beat.

Why a fish and chip van works

Few things beat hot fish and chips in December.

Whatever the occasion in Greater London, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We’re often booked for:

  • School and PTA Christmas fairs
  • End-of-year club parties
  • Christmas lunches for shift teams
  • Christmas customer days

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Working with your venue

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

About the food

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Questions from Greater London

Does the batter contain gluten?

Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

What about guests who don’t eat fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.

Do you cater Christmas fairs?
