Christmas party fish and chips in Chessington

About our Christmas party fish and chips in Chessington

Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, with hot food for visitors in the cold. On the menu are haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for office Christmas parties and festive family gatherings.

For Christmas parties in Chessington, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. In London, access needs planning. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

The process

You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Plan your Christmas party in Chessington around the dark: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Clear the route for the van

Choosing a fish and chip van

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Chessington

Which station is closest to Chessington?

Chessington North station, in Chessington itself.

Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Will the weather be a problem?

We cook inside the van, so the weather does not stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.

How fast is service?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Can you serve children?

Yes. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Do you have allergen information?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Which areas do you serve?

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

How much space do you need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

About the food

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

Before you choose a spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A short walk from the party
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

Chessington is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we serve

  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips
