Questions from Boars Hill
Could you trade in Raleigh Park?

How far is Boars Hill from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
Yes. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.

Boars Hill in December: what to know
Boars Hill is about 3 miles north of Abingdon-on-Thames, in Oxfordshire. For Christmas parties in Boars Hill, we can park on a drive, a car park, a yard or firm, dry grass. Boars Hill is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover.
A winter fair at a school like Wootton St Peter's Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St Peter draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards.
This part of Oxfordshire takes in OX1, so your Christmas party can be anywhere in it. From Berkeley Road, Jarn Way and Bedwells Heath or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. For Christmas parties just outside Boars Hill, we cover Bayworth (1 mile south-east), Chilswell (1 mile north), Sunningwell (1 mile south), Hinksey Hill (1 mile north-east) and Harcourt Hill (2 miles north). Further out, we also take the van to Oxford (4 miles north-east), Didcot (8 miles south), Bicester (14 miles north-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (3 miles south), Witney (10 miles north-west) and Carterton (13 miles west).
Other landmarks nearby include The Story Museum (2.8 miles north-east) and Westgate Shopping Centre (2.8 miles north-east). Within reach you’ll find Lashford Lane Fen and Harcourt Hill.
- Local schools include Matthew Arnold School (1.9 miles north)
- Pubs nearby include The Fox pub (within half a mile south)
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Keep the queue dry
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check the van can park on site
- Send round an allergy question
Send people out in groups in the cold.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Boars Hill, so put the van where there is good light.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
