Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Lamport
It works for teams who cannot all leave at once, because service can be planned in waves. We serve haddock and chips, gravy and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for christmas markets and fairs and new Year parties.
For a Christmas party near Lamport, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Lamport: your questions answered
How far is Lamport from London?
About 53 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Lamport?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
