Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The number of meals
- The menu and how many choices
- Service time
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Your date and serving time
- Where the van would park
- A picture of where the van would go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
Send us the date, the address or CR8 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Send round an allergy question
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Check the van can park on site
- Put allergy details in writing
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Kenley questions
Can the van park in Dollypers Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first.
What about parking in Kenley?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
What if it is raining or freezing?
Not for the cooking. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Kenley?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Space, access and the venue
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Flat, firm ground for the van
As a London location, Kenley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. By about 3:55pm in late December, it’s dark in Kenley; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
