About our Christmas party fish and chips in Ivybridge
It’s a crowd-pleaser, which makes it a safe choice for a mixed team. Typical bookings include school and PTA Christmas fairs and end-of-year club parties, serving pie and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.
Around Ivybridge, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. Plan parking and access early, as December is busy on the roads. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Questions from Ivybridge
What about parking in Ivybridge?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Could you trade in Inwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, with a level spot such as a car park and the site’s agreement.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
What affects the price in Ivybridge
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Access and parking
- The minimum booking
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A picture of the parking spot
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Expected numbers
- Any dietary needs and allergies
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
The process
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Plan your Christmas party in Ivybridge around the dark: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Share the timings for the day
Ask for a quote
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we will reply with a quote. Just fill in our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- December Fridays go first: book early
For a work party, food early in the evening normally works best.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
Ivybridge is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

- Haddock and chips
