About our Christmas party fish and chips in Kensal Town
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and a quick, organised service. We’re often asked to cater christmas fairs and lights switch-ons and christmas fairs at schools, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and gravy.
In Kensal Town, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Tell us about lighting and access. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Step by step
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In December, it’s dark in Kensal Town by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- Arrival time and a well-lit spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
- We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Share the timings for the day

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
