Christmas party fish and chips in Chalfont St Giles, cooked to order

December dates book up early, so ask as soon as you know yours. We’re often asked to cater club and society Christmas socials and family Christmas get-togethers, with curry sauce, cod and chips and mushy peas.

In Chalfont St Giles, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. We need firm ground and some light. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.

We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The minimum booking
  • How long we serve
  • The number of meals
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Planners, venues and businesses

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

How it works

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your Christmas party. December in Chalfont St Giles means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check the spot for the van and send a quote.
  3. We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
  4. We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
  • Plan lighting near the hatch
  • Tell facilities or the venue about the van
  • Confirm allergies by email

Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.

Crackers on the tables finish it off.

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?

Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. A van cooks on the spot. Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What you get with us

  • Events in Chalfont St Giles and across Buckinghamshire
  • Classic food your guests already know
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • A clear quote before booking

Read our pricing or our guide to van hire costs.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
