Christmas party fish and chips in Clifton Reynes, fried fresh
A Christmas party doesn’t have to mean another turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater lights switch-on events and end-of-year club parties.
In winter near Clifton Reynes, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
Keep the walk from the door to the van short.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
