Christmas party fish and chips in Lymore
Christmas party fish and chips in Lymore, fried fresh
The van parks outside and serves hot food, without anyone leaving site. Typical bookings include end-of-year club parties and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, with mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips.
In winter near Lymore, we need firm ground and light. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Plan cover for the queue
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Book as early as possible for December
- Check the van can park on site
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Questions from Lymore
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Lymore?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What if it’s raining or freezing?
Not for the cooking. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Lymore?
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

- When payment is due
- How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Planning a Christmas party in Lymore
Lymore is about 2 miles south-west of Lymington, in Hampshire. Wherever your Christmas party is in the SO41 area, we can bring the van to you. Lymore is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Lymore to Southampton (15 miles away).
Train travellers will want to know that Lymington Town station, about 2.7 miles north-east, is the nearest station. If a church like Church of All Saints is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. The New Forest National Park is within about 6 miles of Lymore; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning. With the sea within about 3 miles, December breezes can be cold.
Here we cover the SO41 postcode area. We can serve a Christmas party on streets such as Lymore Valley, Lymore Lane and School Lane, wherever the van can park. Nearby, we also serve Christmas parties in Everton (1 mile north), Milford on Sea (1 mile south-west), Keyhaven (1 mile south-east), Lower Pennington (1 mile east) and Pennington (2 miles north-east).
