About our Christmas party fish and chips in Epsom
It suits teams on shifts, because service can be planned in waves. For festive gatherings after Christmas and christmas customer days, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
Christmas parties in Epsom are often at workplaces and clubs. We need a lit spot close to the door. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
Common questions in Epsom

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
How soon do we need to book?

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Put allergy details in writing
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- December Fridays go first: book early
Keep the walk from the door to the van short.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Where the van can park in Epsom
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

The process
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In December, it’s dark in Epsom by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Clear the route for the van
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Tell us when you want to eat
How to get a price
