Christmas party fish and chips in Goosey, cooked to order
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, with hot food for visitors in the cold. We’re often asked to cater work Christmas parties and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches, with gravy, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Goosey, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Gravy
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Send round an allergy question
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
For a work party, food early in the evening normally works best.
Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.
A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van brings the meal to the team. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- All the chip-shop extras
- No kitchen needed
- Classic food your guests already know
- A van that becomes part of the event

Festive bookings around Goosey
Goosey is about 4 miles north-west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire. Whether your Christmas party is in the middle of Goosey or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. Goosey is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Goosey to Oxford (about 14 miles away).
For Christmas parties in SN7, we just need to know where the van can park and roughly how many guests.

Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
