Christmas party fish and chips in Blackheath
Step by step
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your Christmas party. December in Blackheath means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Plan where the queue will stand

Events we cater in Blackheath

Whatever the occasion in Blackheath, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We’re often booked for:

A winter fair at a school like All Saints' Church of England Primary School Blackheath gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Blackheath
What’s the nearest station to Blackheath?
Blackheath station, in Blackheath itself.
What about parking in Blackheath?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
Ideally in the summer or early autumn, especially for a Friday.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, with a level spot such as a car park and the site’s agreement.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
