Fresh fish and chips in Littlestone-on-Sea
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Littlestone-on-Sea
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. Typical bookings include new Year parties and lights switch-on events, with pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
In a small place like Littlestone-on-Sea, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Plan cover for the queue
- December Fridays go first: book early
For a work party, food early in the evening usually works best.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year
- Distance and any road charges
- The number of meals
- How easy the site is to reach
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The venue or postcode
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Expected numbers
Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

Is Littlestone-on-Sea close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Littlestone-on-Sea?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How do you handle allergies?

When should we book for December?
As soon as you have a date.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you cover Littlestone-on-Sea?

How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
For something other than turkey, a fish and chip van is a great choice. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
