Planners, venues and businesses

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Before you choose a spot

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Gravy
  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Sausage and chips

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Lower Green

Do you come out to small places like Lower Green?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Is Lower Green close to London?

About 61 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.

Is there something for children?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

Can the van park on grass?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

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.

Why choose Christmas party fish and chips in Lower Green?

It works for teams who cannot leave site.

We can help if you are planning any of the following:

  • Christmas lunches for shift teams
  • Christmas family parties
  • Staff Christmas parties
  • Christmas customer days

Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St Michael draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards.

A chip van compared with other options

A cold buffet in December isn’t much of a treat. Hot food from the van does. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Hot food handed straight over
  • All the chip-shop extras
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
