Christmas party fish and chips in Ley Hill, cooked to order
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, with hot food for visitors in the cold. Typical bookings include staff Christmas parties and festive gatherings after Christmas, serving pie and chips, curry sauce and sausage and chips.
For a Christmas party near Ley Hill, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Have a back-up for special diets
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Planning the van’s spot
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A short walk from the party
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

For event organisers in Ley Hill
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
