Christmas party fish and chips for Forty Green events

About our Christmas party fish and chips in Forty Green

December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. Typical bookings include christmas markets and fairs and end-of-year club parties, with mushy peas, pie and chips and curry sauce.

For a Christmas party near Forty Green, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

When do Christmas bookings fill up?

As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.

How long does set-up take?

We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

A chip van compared with other options

Next to a Christmas meal out, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Something for guests to gather round
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

How it works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Forty Green in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

How to get a price

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.

Planning help

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Send round an allergy question
  • Ensure the van and queue are well lit
  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Check the van can park on site

Park the van close to the door.

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

What affects the price in Forty Green

We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Service time
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The menu and how many choices

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Where the event is
  • Your date and serving time
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Planning the van’s spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A spot near your guests

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

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.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
