Christmas party fish and chips in Glynde, cooked to order
Not every Christmas party needs a turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Whether it is depot Christmas treats and christmas fairs at schools, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips and more.
For a Christmas party near Glynde, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Glynde in December: what to know
Glynde is about 3 miles east of Lewes, in East Sussex. People in Glynde book us for all sorts of reasons, but it always starts the same way: somewhere to park, a time to serve and fresh frying. We cover 289 places in East Sussex. We serve events right across the region, from Glynde to Brighton (9 miles away).
For colleagues travelling by train, Glynde has its own station, Glynde station. A Christmas fair at St Mary's Church is just the kind of event a chip van suits. Glynde is within about 3 miles of the South Downs National Park, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.
We take the van to Christmas parties all over BN8 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Lacys Hill and Ranscombe Lane, and the van can serve a Christmas party on any of them with a suitable parking spot. Neighbouring places where we serve Christmas parties include Glyndebourne (1 mile north), Firle (1 mile south-east), Ashton Green (2 miles north), Ringmer (2 miles north) and Cliffe (2 miles west). Further out, we also take the van to Eastbourne (11 miles south-east), Seaford (6 miles south), Lewes (3 miles west), Hailsham (8 miles east), Crowborough (14 miles north) and Uckfield (7 miles north).
Nearby you will also find Museum of Agricultural Bygones (2.4 miles north-east) and Lewes Victoria Hospital (3.3 miles west). The countryside around Glynde includes Cliffe Hill and Southerham Farm.
- Local schools include Firle Church of England Primary School (1.2 miles south-east) and Ringmer Community College and Sixth Form (2.2 miles north)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Trevor Arms (within half a mile south)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include South Malling Without (1.4 miles north-west)
About the food
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Glynde: your questions answered
Can the van park in Lewes and Laughton Levels?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
We do. Send us your date and site details.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, East Sussex included. See all areas.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
How it works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. By about 3:55pm in late December, it’s dark in Glynde; park the van where there is good light.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
Getting a price
Send us the date, the address or BN8 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just use our quote form.
