Christmas party fish and chips for East End events
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Plan your Christmas party in East End around the dark: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Christmas party fish and chips in East End, fried fresh
Everything is fried inside the van, so rain and cold don’t stop us. Popular choices include pie and chips, mushy peas and gravy, and typical bookings are for christmas markets and fairs and school and PTA Christmas fairs.
In a small place like East End, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan cover for the queue
- Book as early as possible for December
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
Space, access and the venue
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches

FAQs for East End
What’s the nearest station to East End?
The closest is Combe station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Is East End close to London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
Whenever suits your party. Plan lighting, as it is dark early.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
