Christmas party fish and chips for Cambridge Heath events
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
A cold buffet doesn’t feel festive. Hot food from the van does. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
Why book with us
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Hot food handed straight over
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Cambridge Heath
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, with hot food for visitors in the cold. We are often asked to cater school and PTA Christmas fairs and lights switch-on events, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and curry sauce.
In Cambridge Heath, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Let us know about lighting and the way in. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

What else we do in Cambridge Heath
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A spot near your guests
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
As a London location, Cambridge Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
