How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Fulking
Not every Christmas party needs a turkey dinner. Fish and chips from the van is warming, generous and a bit different. Typical bookings include end-of-year customer events and depot Christmas treats, serving mushy peas, sausage and chips and gravy.
In winter near Fulking, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order rarely arrives hot. The van fries on site. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
