A chip van near Bromley Green
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Bromley Green
Family get-togethers over the festive season can use a van too. We are often asked to cater school and PTA Christmas fairs and new Year parties, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
For a Christmas party near Bromley Green, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
For event organisers in Bromley Green
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

What happens on the day
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your guests can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. In December, it’s dark in Bromley Green by about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
