How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Hitchambury
Everything is fried inside the van, so rain and cold don’t stop us. Whether it’s christmas fairs and lights switch-ons and new Year parties, we’ll put together a menu of gravy, haddock and chips and pie and chips for your guests.
In winter near Hitchambury, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Check the van can park on site
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. An afternoon Christmas party in Hitchambury can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there is good light.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Planning help
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A cold buffet in December isn’t much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is. Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Bookings across Slough, including Hitchambury
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
