Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Lower Green
What’s the nearest station to Lower Green?
The closest is Esher station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can the van park in Giggs Hill Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first.
When should we book for December?
Very early. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
Do you come to Lower Green?
We do. Lower Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Lower Green
It suits teams on shifts, because service can be planned in waves. We serve mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy, and we’re regularly asked to cater lights switch-on events and christmas customer days.
In a small place like Lower Green, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
A closer look at the menu
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Keep the queue dry
- Send allergies to us in writing
Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.
