Christmas party fish and chips in Fairford Leys

About our Christmas party fish and chips in Fairford Leys

It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, because service can be planned in waves. For staff Christmas parties and festive open days, we can cook gravy, mushy peas and pie and chips for your guests.

Around Fairford Leys, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. We need firm ground and some light. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

How the day works

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. It gets dark in Fairford Leys by about 3:55pm at Christmas; park the van where there is good light.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Looking after everyone

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Tell facilities or the venue about the van
  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for

Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.

Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.
