Christmas party fish and chips in Kiddington, fried fresh

It is a crowd-pleaser, which makes it ideal for a big, mixed group. We are frequently asked to cater festive gatherings after Christmas and work Christmas parties, with cod and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.

In a small place like Kiddington, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Diets, allergies and planning

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Choose a lit spot for the van
  • Collect allergies in advance

Stagger groups so the queue stays short.

A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A cold buffet does not feel festive. Hot food from the van does. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Why Kiddington hosts choose us

  • Something for guests to gather round
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

See our prices page and our guide to van hire costs.

Step by step

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Sunset in Kiddington in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

Cod and chips
