Christmas party fish and chips for Gold Street events
Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Gold Street
December bookings are planned for the dark and the cold: a lit, sheltered spot, and service timed so people aren’t outside for long. For festive family gatherings and office Christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
In a small place like Gold Street, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A short walk from the party
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
From the hatch

Gold Street: your questions answered
Is Gold Street close to London?
Roughly 22 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Gold Street?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

What else we do in Gold Street
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van in the car park keeps it simple. 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
- Quick service from the hatch
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
