It works for teams who can’t all leave at once, with service timed to each group. Typical bookings include festive gatherings after Christmas and office Christmas parties, serving haddock and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The day of the week
- The minimum booking
- How long we serve
- How far we travel
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
What we need to know
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A picture of where the van would go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Your date and serving time
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Working with your venue
Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Bray
Which station is closest to Bray?
Taplow station, about 1.3 miles north-east of the centre.
Can the van park in Braywick Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
When should we eat?
At the time you choose. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

What else we do in Bray
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

- Pie and chips
- Curry sauce

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Plan cover for the queue
Plan cover for the queue.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
The process
You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your Christmas party. We handle the cooking and serving. An afternoon Christmas party in Bray can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there’s good light.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Tell us when you want to eat
Ask for a quote
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
