Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Fitzrovia
Fish and chips is food everyone enjoys, which makes it a safe choice for a mixed team. On the menu are gravy, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater school and PTA Christmas fairs and christmas markets and fairs.
Around Fitzrovia, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. Plan parking and access early, as December is busy on the roads. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Common questions in Fitzrovia
Can the van park in St Anne's Churchyard?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Fitzrovia?
London Euston station, in Fitzrovia itself.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Fitzrovia.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you cater Christmas fairs?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Get in touch with the date.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Send allergies to us in writing
Afterwards, we pack up.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it is a favourite with children.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
As a London location, Fitzrovia is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
