Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Colnbrook
How far is Colnbrook from London?
Roughly 19 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you trade in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can the van come to Colnbrook?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Colnbrook is within our area and the rest of Slough. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.

Planning a Christmas party in Colnbrook
Colnbrook is about 4 miles north of Staines-upon-Thames, in Slough. Across the SL3 area, we’ll come to your venue, home or workplace. Colnbrook is one of 31 towns and villages in Slough where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Colnbrook to Guildford (16 miles away).
If people are coming by rail, Sunnymeads station is about 1.7 miles away. If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Colnbrook Church of England Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well.
Anywhere in SL3, we can fry fresh for your guests. Your Christmas party could be at a house on High Street, Rayners Close and Drift Way, as long as there’s somewhere for the van. If your venue is just outside Colnbrook, we also cover Poyle (1 mile south-east), Brands Hill (1 mile west), Horton (1 mile south-west), Stanwell Moor (2 miles south-east) and Ditton (2 miles west). We also serve nearby towns such as Slough (4 miles north-west), Cippenham (5 miles north-west), Chalvey (4 miles north-west), Britwell (5 miles north-west), Upton (3 miles north-west) and Burnham (7 miles north-west).
A little further out are Windsor Castle (3.4 miles west) and Upton Hospital (3.2 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Uxbridge Moor and Staines Reservoirs.
- Schools near Colnbrook include Langley Grammar School (1.6 miles north-west)
- Local pubs include The Red Lion Public House (under half a mile north-west)
Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Book as early as possible for December
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Collect allergies in advance
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
The process
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Sunset in Colnbrook in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- We start with a few details about your Christmas party.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
