What happens on the day
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. In December, it’s dark in Braywoodside by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van in the car park keeps it simple. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Have a back-up for special diets
Park the van close to the door.

FAQs for Braywoodside
Could you trade in Ockwells Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first.
Is Braywoodside close to London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
At the time you choose. Remember it’s dark by about 4pm in December.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
What if it’s raining or freezing?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Events we cater in Braywoodside
Rain or shine, the fryers keep going.
We are booked for all kinds of occasions in Braywoodside and nearby. Some of the most common are:
- PTA Christmas events
- Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons
- Office Christmas parties
- Christmas family parties
A winter fair at a school like Holyport College gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
Comparing caterers

- If the price includes VAT
- What they can offer for dietary needs
- How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
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.
