About our Christmas party fish and chips in Liphook

About the food
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Collect allergies in advance
For a work party, food early in the evening typically works best.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Liphook? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
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.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The day of the week
- The number of meals
- Access and parking
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The address or venue name
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A picture of the space and the way in
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, fill in our quote form.
