About Christmas party fish and chips in West Berkshire

It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, because service can be planned in waves. We serve sausage and chips, gravy and pie and chips, and we are frequently booked for lights switch-on events and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches.

You do not need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your Christmas party. The frying and serving are down to us.

First, the plan: what, where and what time.
We come back with availability and a clear 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.

December events across West Berkshire

From Newbury, Thatcham and Burghfield Common to 139 villages and hamlets, December brings parties at work and at home across West Berkshire. Every winter booking needs a lit, level spot. Parts of West Berkshire are within a few miles of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles.

Newbury: A winter fair at a school like St Nicolas C.E. Junior School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Newbury is on or near the A4 and A339, so we can reach it easily in winter. December in Newbury means early darkness: the light goes at about 4:00pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

How long we serve
Parking and the way in
Travel, tolls and road charges
The day of the week

Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

Dietary needs, with numbers
The address or venue name
Expected numbers
Anything awkward about the way in

Space, access and the venue

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

Flat, firm ground for the van
A clear area by the serving hatch
Access wide and high enough for the van

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
