A chip van near Boughton under Blean
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Christmas party fish and chips in Boughton under Blean, cooked to order
December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. On the menu are pie and chips, gravy and haddock and chips, and we are frequently booked for office Christmas parties and festive gatherings after Christmas.
In a small place like Boughton under Blean, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

What’s the nearest station to Boughton under Blean?
Selling station, about 1.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
