How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Curbridge
December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. For PTA Christmas events and festive family gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips and more.
For a Christmas party near Curbridge, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Curbridge: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Curbridge?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Curbridge from London?
About 64 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can the van come to Curbridge?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Curbridge and across Oxfordshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

For a work party, food early in the evening normally works best.
Festive lights by the van look great.
What a fish and chip van costs
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
- Distance and any road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.
Space, access and the venue
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Access wide and high enough for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
