It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, with service timed to each group. Popular choices include mushy peas, gravy and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for family Christmas get-togethers and christmas lunches for shift teams.
In a small place like Horseport, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Your choice of menu
- Numbers
- Whether a minimum applies
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of where the van would go
- Any dietary needs and allergies
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Send round an allergy question
- Put allergy details in writing
Keep the walk from the door to the van short.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Food your guests will love
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Questions from Horseport
Do you come to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Horseport?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Get in touch with the date.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.
Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
