About our Christmas party fish and chips in Leysdown-on-Sea
Fish and chips is food everyone enjoys, which makes it ideal for a big, mixed group. For christmas fairs at schools and christmas family parties, we can cook pie and chips, gravy and cod and chips and more.
Near Leysdown-on-Sea, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- December Fridays go first: book early
A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it’s pork only. A chip van gives a choice. 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.
