About our Christmas party fish and chips in Cobham
December dates book up early, so ask as soon as you know yours. On the menu are pie and chips, gravy and cod and chips, and we’re often booked for warehouse and depot Christmas lunches and christmas markets and fairs.
At a festive party in Cobham, the van on the drive goes down well. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
A chip van compared with other options
A cold buffet does not feel festive. Hot fish and chips is. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
Why Cobham hosts choose us
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Questions from Cobham
Is Cobham close to London?
About 17 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Check the van can park on site
Send people out in groups.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
