About Christmas party fish and chips in the Isle of Wight

It’s a crowd-pleaser, which makes it a safe choice for a mixed team. We’re often asked to cater christmas socials for clubs and festive gatherings after Christmas, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and pie and chips.

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch.

Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
You hear back on the date and the price.
The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
We leave the spot as we found it.

Near you in Newport

Locally, our bookings take us close to Castle Inn, The Man in the Moon and Seaclose Park and the streets around them. Also close by are Christ The King College (0.6 miles south-west), Island Innovation VI Form Campus (less than half a mile south-east) and Nine Acres Primary School (less than half a mile south). Nearby you will also find Carisbrooke Castle (1 mile south-west) and St Mary's Hospital (0.8 miles north). The countryside around Newport includes Briddlesford Nature Reserve and Mill Hill.

Festive bookings in the Isle of Wight

Across the Isle of Wight, festive bookings range from works car parks to village halls. Tell us about lighting and access. 116 of the places we cover in the Isle of Wight are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we frequently plan a sheltered side for the queue, and fish and chips feels right at home.

Newport: Newport is on or near the A3020 and A3054, so we can reach it easily in winter. A winter fair at a school like Nine Acres Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. It gets dark in Newport by about 4:00pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
Send allergies to us in writing
December Fridays go first: book early
Agree the spot with the venue

Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Christmas music near the van sets the mood.

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

The minimum booking
Travel, tolls and road charges
Access and parking
The date and time of year

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Details that help

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

Expected numbers
The date and when you’d like to eat
The spot you have in mind for the van
A picture of where the van would go

Food your guests will love

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

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.

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.

The Isle of Wight questions

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Do you do work Christmas parties?

Yes. Send us your date and site details.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

When should we eat?

Early in the evening normally works best. For a lunch, tell us your break time.

What happens if it rains?

The weather does not 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.
