How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Chinnor

For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you. For christmas markets and fairs and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, we can cook curry sauce, pie and chips and gravy and more.

Around Chinnor, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. We need firm ground and some light. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

  • Something for guests to gather round

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In December, it’s dark in Chinnor by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

  1. It starts with your date, site and numbers.
  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. We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How long we serve
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • How many people are eating

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Send us the date, the address or OX39 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, use our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

From the hatch

  • Mushy peas
  • Curry sauce
  • Sausage and chips
  • Gravy
  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips

Planning a Christmas party in Chinnor

Chinnor is about 8 miles north-west of High Wycombe, in Oxfordshire. Give us the address of your Christmas party in Chinnor, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. We cover 443 places in Oxfordshire. We serve events right across the region, from Chinnor to Oxford (about 14 miles away).

If people are coming by rail, the closest railway station is Princes Risborough station, roughly 3.1 miles north-east of the centre. A winter fair at a school like St Andrew's Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Chinnor, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.

Wherever your Christmas party is in OX39, we can bring the van to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We can serve a Christmas party on streets such as Station Road, Woodgreen Square and Church Road, as long as there is somewhere for the van.

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
