Christmas party fish and chips in Bentley, cooked to order
A fish and chip van in the car park or outside the venue gives everyone a hot meal. Whether it’s lights switch-on events and festive open days, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips for your guests.
Near Bentley, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Why choose Christmas party fish and chips in Bentley?
By December, many people have had several Christmas dinners, so fish and chips is a welcome change.
Whatever brings people together, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We regularly serve:

If a church like Church of St Mary is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening.
