How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Brockenhurst
December bookings are planned for the dark and the cold: a lit, sheltered spot, and service timed so people aren’t outside for long. On the menu are gravy, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we are often booked for festive family gatherings and boxing Day and New Year gatherings.
Around Brockenhurst, Christmas parties are often at home, the village hall or a club. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu.

- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

- Book as early as possible for December
Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How long we serve
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum booking
- The day of the week
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Food your guests will love
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
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.
