Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Hangersley
Is Hangersley too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come to Hangersley?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Hangersley. To check your date, use our quote form.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
At the time you choose. Plan lighting, as it’s dark early.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

- Send round an allergy question

Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
