Christmas parties in Four Oaks: local tips
Four Oaks is about 1 mile west of Faversham, in Kent. We serve Christmas parties at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Four Oaks. We cover 922 places in Kent. Our bookings stretch from Four Oaks to Canterbury (10 miles away).
Christmas fairs at a church such as St Mary's Church can book the van as a hot-food stall. A winter fair at a school like Luddenham School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Christmas party fish and chips in Four Oaks, fried fresh
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. For end-of-year club parties and end-of-year customer events, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
In winter near Four Oaks, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
For planners, venues and organisers
Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
What we serve
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Gravy
- Mushy peas
- Curry sauce
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Flag any coeliac guests
When service is finished, we pack up.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A chip van compared with other options
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
