What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Space, access and the venue
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
From the hatch

- Pie and chips

Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Book as early as possible for December
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
Festive lights by the van look great.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A cold buffet in December is not much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

Festive bookings around Ashford

If people are coming by rail, Ashford Surrey station serves Ashford directly. A winter fair at a school like Spelthorne College gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
We serve Christmas parties across TW15, TW19 and TW13. Local streets include Church Road, Station Road and London Road; a Christmas party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park.

For planners, venues and organisers
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Sunset in Ashford in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- 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, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
