Christmas party fish and chips in Bossingham, fried fresh
Not every Christmas party needs a turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. We are often asked to cater end-of-year club parties and family Christmas get-togethers, serving sausage and chips, gravy and pie and chips.
In a small place like Bossingham, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Bossingham
How far is Bossingham from London?
Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Bossingham?
The closest is Chartham station, roughly 4.8 miles away.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Bossingham?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
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’ll plan service around it.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
Ideally in the summer or early autumn, especially for a Friday.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Send round an allergy question
For a work party, food early in the evening typically works best.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a Christmas meal out, a van brings the meal to the team. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Something for guests to gather round
- Events in Bossingham and across Kent
- No surprises in your quote
Food your guests will love
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Planning the van’s spot
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
From the hatch

Bossingham is about 6 miles south of Canterbury, in Kent. We cover Bossingham as standard, so your Christmas party just needs a date, a spot for the van and a serving time. We take the van to 922 places across Kent. We serve events right across the region, from Bossingham to Canterbury (6 miles away).
Train travellers will want to know that the nearest station is Chartham station, about 4.8 miles north-west.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Plan your Christmas party in Bossingham around the dark: the light goes at about 3:50pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.
- You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
