Christmas party fish and chips across Wokingham
The van parks outside and serves hot food. We are frequently asked to cater office Christmas parties and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and sausage and chips.
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time.
- Tell us what you’re 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.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.

Christmas across Wokingham: what to know
Across Wokingham, festive bookings range from works car parks to village halls. Tell us about lighting and access.
Reading: A winter fair at a school like Coley Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. For colleagues travelling by train, Reading West station, about 0.7 miles north-west, is the nearest station. By about 3:55pm in late December, it is dark in Reading; park the van where there’s good light, and keep the walk short.

A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van brings the meal to the team.
Questions to ask before booking
- The van’s size and access needs
- Allergen information for each item
- Whether VAT is included
- A clear list of what’s included
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Common questions in Wokingham
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
Do you cater Christmas fairs?
Yes. Send us the event details and the pitch information.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
