Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Luddesdown
Is Luddesdown too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Luddesdown close to London?
Roughly 23 miles from the centre of London.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
We do. Send us your date and site details as early as you can.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Luddesdown?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas

Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.

Step by step
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your Christmas party in Luddesdown. Plan your Christmas party in Luddesdown around the dark: the light goes at about 3:50pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Make sure the van can get in
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Planning help
Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A spot near your guests
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
For something other than turkey, a chip van is hard to beat in Luddesdown. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- Quick service from the hatch
- A clear quote before you book

Should I sort the food myself?
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.
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 solves that by cooking on site.
