About our Christmas party fish and chips in Lewisham
The van parks outside and serves hot food. Typical bookings include depot Christmas treats and PTA Christmas events, with curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Around Lewisham, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. Plan parking and access early, as December is busy on the roads. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

A chip van compared with other options
Venue Christmas packages add up. A van can be better value. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check the van can park on site
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The menu and how many choices
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long we serve
- Access and parking
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The venue or postcode
- Where the van would park
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The date and time of the event
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

Questions from Lewisham
Could you trade in Ladywell Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Lewisham?
Lewisham station, in Lewisham itself.
Can the van park on grass?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
When should we book for December?
As soon as you have a date, especially for a Friday.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Step by step

- We check the spot for the van and send a quote.

The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A spot near your guests
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
Lewisham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
