About our Christmas party fish and chips in Hedgerley
A Christmas party doesn’t have to mean another turkey dinner. Fish and chips from the van is warming, generous and a bit different. Popular choices include gravy, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for work Christmas parties and end-of-year club parties.
In a small place like Hedgerley, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Book as early as possible for December
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Confirm allergies by email
