Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
For a Christmas party that feels a bit different, a chip van is hard to beat. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why Chadlington hosts choose us

Christmas party fish and chips in Chadlington, cooked to order
Fish and chips is food everyone enjoys, which makes it ideal for a big, mixed group. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for festive family gatherings and office Christmas parties.
In a small place like Chadlington, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Cod, haddock or both
- How far we travel
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Any minimum charge
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where the van would park
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Plan your Christmas party in Chadlington around the dark: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Share the timings for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
- Collect allergies in advance
- Plan cover for the queue
- Book as early as possible for December
A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

Chadlington: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Chadlington?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Chadlington close to London?
About 67 miles from central London.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Chadlington.
Can you serve in the cold?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
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.
