Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Lane End
Which station is closest to Lane End?
High Wycombe station, about 3.8 miles east of the centre.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes. Send us the event details and the pitch information.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Cod, haddock or both
- The length of service
- How far we travel
- The date and time of year

Details that help

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Agree the spot with the venue
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
Step by step
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your Christmas party. By about 3:55pm in late December, it’s dark in Lane End; park the van where there’s good light.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.

Lane End in December: what to know
Lane End is about 4 miles west of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. For Christmas parties in Lane End, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. Lane End is one of 263 places in Buckinghamshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 13 miles away.
Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of the Holy Trinity draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. If people are coming by rail, High Wycombe station is about 3.8 miles away. Lane End is within about 5 miles of the Chilterns National Landscape, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.
We take the van to Christmas parties all over the HP14 postcode area. From High Street, Church Road and Elwes Road or anywhere nearby, we will bring the van to you. Being close to the B482, Lane End is easy for us to reach.

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
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.
