Fresh fish and chips in Chesham

Planning a Christmas party in Chesham

Chesham is in Buckinghamshire. From the centre of Chesham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. Chesham is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Chesham to Milton Keynes (23 miles away).

A winter fair at a school like Elmtree Infant and Nursery School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. For colleagues travelling by train, Amersham station is about 2.6 miles away. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 5 miles of Chesham; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

We serve Christmas parties across HP5 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include High Street, Station Road and Sunnyside Road, and the van can serve a Christmas party on any of them with a suitable parking spot. With the A416 and B485 close by, Chesham is easy for us to reach. Other places close to Chesham we cover include Pond Park (1 mile north), Chartridge (2 miles north-west), Hundridge (2 miles west), Asheridge (2 miles north-west) and Bellingdon (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Aylesbury (11 miles north-west), High Wycombe (8 miles south-west), Marlow (12 miles south-west), Amersham (3 miles south), Beaconsfield (7 miles south) and Chalfont St Peter (8 miles south). As one of the bigger places in Buckinghamshire, Chesham has lots of places where the van can park.

Nearby you’ll also find Amersham Hospital (3.4 miles south) and Hawridge Court (2.2 miles north). Within reach you will find Sands Bank.

  • Local schools include Chiltern Hills Academy (0.5 miles west)
  • Pubs nearby include The Jolly Sportsman pub (under half a mile east)

How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Chesham

Everything is fried inside the van, so rain and cold do not stop us. Whether it is festive family gatherings and school and PTA Christmas fairs, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and gravy.

In a town like Chesham, a Christmas party might be at the office, a club or home. We need a lit spot close to the door. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. It gets dark in Chesham by about 3:55pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.

  1. Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.

Chesham: your questions answered

How far is Chesham from London?

Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London.

What’s the nearest station to Chesham?

Amersham station, about 2.6 miles south of the centre.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Can the van park on grass?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Plan cover for the queue
  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Ask about allergies on the party invitation
  • Tell facilities or the venue about the van

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

Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.

Working with your venue

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
