Christmas party fish and chips in Ludgershall, cooked to order
A Christmas party doesn’t have to mean another turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Whether it’s club and society Christmas socials and christmas fairs at schools, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.
In a small place like Ludgershall, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. A van cooks on the spot. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.

What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Your choice of menu
- Service time
- How far we travel
- The day of the week
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
FAQs for Ludgershall
Is Ludgershall close to London?
About 47 miles from central London.
Is Ludgershall 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.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Do you come to Ludgershall?
We do. Ludgershall is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How the day works
There is very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your Christmas party. We handle the cooking and serving. Sunset in Ludgershall in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
