About our Christmas party fish and chips in Jenkins' Green

A Christmas party does not have to mean another turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Popular choices include pie and chips, curry sauce and gravy, and typical bookings are for christmas lunches for shift teams and family Christmas get-togethers.

For a Christmas party near Jenkins' Green, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Plan your Christmas party in Jenkins' Green around the dark: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site

Choosing a fish and chip van

Christmas catering near Jenkins' Green

Jenkins' Green is about 3 miles north of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Wherever your Christmas party is in the BN24 area, we can fry fresh for your guests. Jenkins' Green is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we bring the van. Our bookings stretch from Jenkins' Green to Brighton (19 miles away).

A winter fair at a school like Hankham Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. If a church like St Luke's Church is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. The South Downs National Park is within about 7 miles of Jenkins' Green, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route. With the sea within about 5 miles, December breezes can be cold.

Anywhere in BN24, we can bring the van to you. We also bring the van to Christmas parties in Westham (1 mile south-east), Pevensey (1 mile east), Langney (2 miles south), Pevensey Bay (2 miles east) and Wartling (3 miles north-east).

Prices and what affects them

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • The date and time of year
  • The number of meals
  • How long we serve
  • Any minimum charge

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • The venue or postcode
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Send us the date, the address or BN24 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

Planning the van’s spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Jenkins' Green

How far is Jenkins' Green from London?

About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you serve near the sea around Jenkins' Green?

Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.

Can you serve in the cold?

The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.

Can you serve children?

Yes. Children typically love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

How much space do you need?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.

Who clears up?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Organising for someone else?

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
