Christmas party fish and chips in Surrey: what to expect

Everything is fried inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop service. We’re often asked to cater festive open days and office Christmas parties, with mushy peas, pie and chips and gravy.

The first sign we’ve arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch.

You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
You get an access check and a clear quote.
We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.

Local landmarks in Guildford

Locally, our bookings take us close to Surrey Maths School, Sandfield Primary School and Guildford High School. You’ll also find Church of St John the Evangelist (less than half a mile east), Stoke Park (within half a mile east) and The King's Head pub (under half a mile south-east). The nearest railway station is London Road (Guildford) station, roughly 0.6 miles south-east of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Guildford Castle (0.9 miles south) and Guildford House (0.8 miles south). Open spaces near Guildford include Silent Pool and Pewley Hill.

Festive bookings in Surrey

From Guildford, Woking and Camberley to 276 villages and hamlets, December brings parties at work and at home across Surrey. Plan lighting and a short walk to the van. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within easy reach of places across Surrey, so check venue rules on vehicles for countryside events.

Guildford: If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like Sandfield Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well. The A3 and A25 make Guildford easy to reach on a dark winter evening. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Guildford; light the path to the van.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

Let us know about coeliac disease
Ask about allergies on the party invitation
Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for

Send people out in groups in the cold.

A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

What affects the price in Surrey

These are the factors that matter most:

The number of meals
Your choice of menu
The minimum booking
Travel, tolls and road charges

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

What we need to know

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

Allergies and diets you know about
The venue or postcode
A picture of the parking spot
The date and time of the event

Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.

End-of-year customer events
Festive family gatherings
School and PTA Christmas fairs
Christmas lunches for shift teams

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A cold buffet in December is not much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is.

Common questions in Surrey

How long does set-up take?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

When should we eat?

Early in the evening generally works best. For lunchtime, we will work to your break.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
