About our Christmas party fish and chips in Kimbridge
It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, because service can be planned in waves. Popular choices include cod and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas family parties and christmas fairs at schools.
In winter near Kimbridge, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
What affects the price in Kimbridge
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Service time
- How easy the site is to reach

The process

- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
