About our Christmas party fish and chips in Lullington

Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, serving hot food on a chilly evening. Typical bookings include boxing Day and New Year gatherings and lights switch-on events, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and gravy.

For a Christmas party near Lullington, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

How the day works

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we will adjust start times and pace. Sunset in Lullington 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.

  1. You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
  4. We park up, heat the fryers and serve hot food on a cold day.
  5. We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Give us a contact for the day

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

  • Any minimum charge

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
