Christmas party fish and chips in Egham
How the day works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. In December, it is dark in Egham by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Make sure the van can get in
- Let us know the serving time

- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
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.
Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Send allergies to us in writing
Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Festive lights by the van look great.
