How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Flishinghurst
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, serving hot food on a chilly evening. For festive open days and christmas family parties, we will put together a menu of curry sauce, mushy peas and sausage and chips for your guests.
In a small place like Flishinghurst, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van brings the meal to the team. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why Flishinghurst hosts choose us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Bookings across Kent, including Flishinghurst
- Everything cooked to order at your event

Other occasions in Flishinghurst
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
