Family get-togethers over the festive season can use a van too. On the menu are cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we’re often booked for festive family gatherings and new Year parties.
In winter near Ascot, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Ascot
Could you trade in Silwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Ascot?
Ascot station, in Ascot itself.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
What if it’s raining or freezing?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Keep the van close to the door.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Windsor and Maidenhead. Find your area.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Keep the queue dry
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
What the van needs
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A spot near your guests
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
