Christmas party fish and chips for Linchmere events
About our Christmas party fish and chips in Linchmere
For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you. We serve sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and we are frequently booked for warehouse and depot Christmas lunches and festive open days.
In winter near Linchmere, we need firm ground and light. Everything is fried fresh at your Christmas party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
How the day works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your Christmas party in Linchmere. December in Linchmere means early darkness: the light goes at about 4:00pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Questions from Linchmere
Do you come out to small places like Linchmere?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
Do you do Christmas markets?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For event organisers in Linchmere
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Perfect for your Christmas party in Linchmere
Christmas dinner fatigue is real, so fish and chips is a welcome change.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Lights switch-on events
- School and PTA Christmas fairs
- Work Christmas parties
- Christmas lunches for shift teams
A winter fair at a school like Woolmer Hill School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check the van can park on site
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Choose a lit spot for the van
Afterwards, we pack up.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
