Questions from Hazeley
Is Hazeley 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.
Which station is closest to Hazeley?
Winchfield station, about 3.3 miles south of the centre.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, it’s a popular stall. Send us the details.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Christmas party fish and chips in Hazeley, cooked to order
December dates book up early, so ask as soon as you know yours. Popular choices include sausage and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we are often booked for end-of-year club parties and PTA Christmas events.
Near Hazeley, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is one dish. A chip van gives a choice. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Also in Hazeley
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- The day of the week
- Parking and the way in
- Your choice of menu
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Flat, firm ground for the van

What happens on the day
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Hazeley in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Let us know the serving time
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
