A chip van near Loughton

Christmas party fish and chips in Loughton, cooked to order

Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, serving hot food on a chilly evening. Popular choices include cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas, and we’re regularly asked to cater staff Christmas parties and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches.

At a festive party in Loughton, the van on the drive goes down well. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

About the food

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Planners, venues and businesses

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Loughton? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

The process

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Loughton; light the path to the van.

  1. We start with a few details about your Christmas party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
