Fringford in December: what to know
Fringford is about 4 miles north of Bicester, in Oxfordshire. People in Fringford book us for all sorts of reasons, but the plan is always the same: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. Fringford is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Oxford, about 15 miles away.
A winter fair at a school like Fringford Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St Michael and All Angels draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards.
Wherever your Christmas party is in OX27, we can bring the van to you. Local streets include Main Street, Crosslands and Church Close; a Christmas party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Close by, we cover Christmas parties in Hethe (1 mile north-west), Stratton Audley (2 miles south), Hardwick (2 miles west), Stoke Lyne (2 miles west) and Caversfield (3 miles south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Oxford (15 miles south), Banbury (12 miles north-west), Bicester (4 miles south), Kidlington (12 miles south-west), Headington Quarry (14 miles south) and Bure Park (4 miles south-west).
A little further out are Beaumont Castle (3.2 miles north) and Bicester Community Hospital (4.4 miles south).

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Can you come to our office Christmas party?
We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
Step by step
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In December, it is dark in Fringford by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
