Fresh fish and chips in Coursehorn
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Coursehorn
Fish and chips is food everyone enjoys, which makes it ideal for a big, mixed group. Whether it’s new Year parties and staff Christmas parties, we will put together a menu of gravy, sausage and chips and cod and chips for your guests.
Near Coursehorn, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
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.
