Christmas party fish and chips in Barnes Street, fried fresh
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and a quick, organised service. Whether it is end-of-year club parties and work Christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
In winter near Barnes Street, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Sunset in Barnes Street in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Share the timings for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Barnes Street: your questions answered
Is Barnes Street close to London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Barnes Street?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What time is best for food?
Food early on is typically wise. For a lunch, tell us your break time.
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Check the van can park on site
- Send round an allergy question
- Book as early as possible for December
- Let us know about coeliac disease
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
Christmas music near the van sets the mood.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A spot near your guests
